On Saturday afternoon in Krakow’s Main Market Square a gunman fired at random passersby, killing six people and injuring 16, including two police officers. He was shot by police and later died in hospital on Monday.
Investigators recovered four firearms from the suspect and his car: two AR‑15 rifles and two pistols, together with about 500 rounds of ammunition for those weapons.
The find was reported by Polish news website Onet and confirmed by National Prosecutor’s Office spokesperson Przemyslaw Nowak.
BBC reports that the suspect had a firearms permit and may have obtained the weapons from his family home.
Police are analysing the recovered ammunition and cartridge cases to determine how many shots were fired – the preliminary count suggests at least dozens, possibly hundreds.
