Five people were killed and more than a dozen injured after a gunman opened fire Saturday afternoon in a busy market square in Krakow, Poland, police said.
The gunman aimed at random people as he drove into the Main Square, a major tourist destination in the center of the city, Krakow police said. Police officers are among the wounded.
The perpetrator was shot and wounded during a gunfight with officers a short distance away from the initial violence, police said.
Katarzyna Cisło, a spokesperson for the Krakow police, told TVN24 that the perpetrator was wearing military-style fatigues and he used a military-type long gun in the attack. Police found many pieces of other weapons, as well as ammunition, in his car.
Cisło added that the gunman acted alone and that the public is safe. Mass shootings are uncommon in Poland.
