At least six killed as gunman opens fire in Kraków's historic centre
Police say at least six people were killed and around a dozen wounded when a gunman opened fire in the historic centre of Kraków, Poland. Videos online show people fleeing and emergency services at the scene.
A gunman opened fire in the historic centre of Kraków, Poland's second-largest city, on 7 November. According to police, at least six people were killed and around a dozen were wounded. Euronews reported the attack and updated its story on the evening of 7 November.
What the videos show
Amateur footage shows people running away as shots are heard, while cars continue to pass through the area. Other videos capture the aftermath: emergency services responding at the scene, broken glass and overturned chairs scattered nearby. A helicopter can also be seen flying over the area.
What remains unclear
The source does not say who the gunman is, what the motive was or whether he has been detained. It also gives no details about the identities of the victims or the condition of the wounded. The figures may change, as the report was still being updated.
The historic centre is one of the parts of Kraków where people gather in daily life, so the shooting affects a wide public. Police and emergency services remain at the scene.
