Krakow: The 24-year-old man who opened fire in a city square in Krakow, Poland, killing six people and wounding 15 others, died in hospital on Monday morning, police said.
The man had been in critical condition after police shot him to stop the attack on Saturday. He underwent several operations but died of his injuries, according to police.
The assailant drove through the square in the heart of Krakow's Old Town before launching the attack. The location is a major tourist hub in Poland's second-largest city.
Authorities also found the bodies of the man's sister, mother, and father at the family home in Ostrowiec Swietokrzyski, a city about 150 kilometres northeast of Krakow. They are believed to have died from gunshot wounds.
On Sunday night, mourners gathered in Krakow's central square to lay candles and flowers near bullet holes left behind after the attack.
“I come here so as not to get caught up in a spiral of fear and anxiety,” Krakow resident Maciej Sikorski told The Associated Press from the square.
“In a situation like this, it's all too easy to stop living — to start being afraid instead, and just vegetate. That is something I really want to avoid,” he said.
