- Authorities are investigating the attack as a terrorist offence.

## Summary

A 25-year-old Polish man allegedly killed his parents and sister before driving into Krakow’s Main Market Square and opening fire, killing six more people, including a British man. Newly released footage shows two police officers confronting him; both were wounded, and one continued firing despite being injured. The attack has prompted a terrorism investigation and raised questions about the suspect’s alleged radical views.

At least 15 people, including the two officers, were injured in Saturday’s shooting. Police said the six victims at the square included four women and two men; three were Polish and one was British, while the nationalities of the other two were not specified. The suspect, identified locally as Michal O, was wounded and hospitalised; authorities said he had a semi-automatic rifle and that many guns were found in his car. A sports shooting club confirmed he was a member and had visited its range twice that year, but said he had not received tactical or combat training there.
