## Summary

Polish prosecutors say a gunman who opened fire in Krakow’s main square had visited websites about Norwegian mass killer Anders Behring Breivik. Justice Minister Waldemar Zurek said investigators had found a “very strong indication of right-wing extremism”, a finding that has become politically disputed.

The suspect, 24-year-old factory worker Michal Oksinski, died in hospital on Monday after police shot and arrested him. Six people were killed in the Saturday attack, and the bodies of Oksinski’s parents and sister were found at the family home; officials say they were likely killed by him too. Investigators found a Gadsden flag among his possessions and a silencer in his car. Breivik killed 77 people in Norway in 2011.
