Krakow shooting suspect has died in hospital, police say

A gunman suspected of killing six people in central Krakow and his parents and sister at their home has died in hospital, Polish police say.

The 24-year-old was injured after opening fire in central Krakow, the second largest city in Poland, on Saturday, and died early on Monday morning, police said.

Armed officers raced to the scene and engaged in a gunfight with the suspect, who was shot within three minutes of the attack beginning, preventing a further massacre, officials said.

Officials initially reported the gunman had apparently been inspired by "far-right ideologies", but have since said they are still investigating any possible motivation.

After the shooting, which began shortly before 15:00 local time (14:00 GMT) in Krakow's busy Main Market Square, police identified the attacker as a 24-year-old Polish man. He has not yet been officially named.

What’s the betting line on whether there is a “mohammed “ in his name?

BULL CRAP! He first killed his parents and his sister at home before his shooting spree. That’s a pretty clear sign of mental illness.

That’s all our press had to hear, as soon as they said “Far Right”, they ran with it. Mission Accomplished.

Interior minister, Marcin Kierwinski, pushed the “right-wing” narrative shortly after the shootings. The emerging details suggest otherwise.

If you haven't spent much time in Europe, it's difficult to imagine the overwhelming cultural influence of the US in other countries.

If you would like to be labeled a right wing extremist. Arbitrarily kill a few people. The news media will take care of the rest for you!

Doesn’t matter, the press ran with it, and they won’t bother to report when the official findings state otherwise.

He knew exactly what he was doing.

The timing is suspicious.

Wednesday is Polish Independence Day, and there are huge anti-Tusk demonstrations planned, especially with the ongoing Constitutional Crisis.

Now they have the pretext to cancel them.

The authorities and the mainstream media, especially the BBC, always lecture us not to jump to conclusions too soon whenever there’s a terroristic or murderous attack ... but it didn’t take them very long to tell us this was a “right-wing extremist”
