Briton killed and another injured in Poland mass shooting that left six dead

A gunman opened fire in Krakow's Main Square on Saturday afternoon, leaving four women and two men dead and 16 others injured, including five foreign nationals from Austria, Germany, Portugal, Russia and the UK. The suspect, a 24-year-old Polish national, was inspired by far-right ideologies and remains in the hospital after being shot by police.

The incident occurred around 3.30pm when the gunman armed with an automatic weapon drove through multiple spots in the square, opening fire at each. Local police launched a blood appeal for Officer Jakub Kulik, who suffered serious injuries while confronting the attacker. Polish prime minister Donald Tusk confirmed that three additional victims were found at the gunman's home, identifying them as his parents and 21-year-old sister.

Polish police commander-in-chief Marek Boron stated that 11 of the injured are Polish citizens, while five were foreign nationals. British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband expressed deep condolences to the families of the victims and pledged solidarity with Poland.
