Kraków shooter's family identified among the dead found at his home
The three people discovered dead at the Kraków shooter's home are his parents and sister, reports DHnet citing Polish radio RMF FM, which is relying on police spokesman Andrzej Fijolek in Warsaw. Police confirmed the information on Sunday morning.
Officers had raided Saturday evening the residence of the perpetrator, aged 24, located in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, a city approximately two hours' drive north-east of Kraków. Prime Minister Donald Tusk had already mentioned the likelihood that they were close relations of the shooter.
The attack carried out on Saturday in the former Polish capital resulted in six deaths, including one British national. Among the five wounded foreigners, police clarified on Sunday to the PAP news agency that they are of British, Portuguese, Russian, German and Austrian nationality. Ten Polish citizens were also wounded, including two police officers.
The health condition of the 15 people hospitalised for gunshot wounds improved slightly during the night, but not all are yet out of danger, according to a police spokeswoman cited by Polish media.
The shooter himself was seriously wounded during his arrest by police. After surgery, he was in critical condition on Sunday morning. The authorities describe him as a young Pole "fascinated" by far-right ideas. Investigators, convinced that he acted alone, are working to establish his motivations and psychological profile.
