Krakow gunman dies in hospital as Poland mourns mass shooting victims

The 24-year-old gunman responsible for the mass shooting in central Krakow has died in hospital from injuries sustained during his arrest, Polish authorities confirmed on Monday. Identified by police as Michal O., the suspect was shot after opening fire from a vehicle in the city's main square on Saturday, killing six people and wounding at least 15 others.

The suspect's death follows the discovery of three additional bodies—believed to be his parents and sister—at his family home. Prime Minister Donald Tusk described the home discovery as "the next act of this tragedy."

Investigators continue searching for a motive, noting the suspect held a valid firearms permit, belonged to a shooting club, and used a civilian variant of an AR-15 rifle. Poland is observing two days of national mourning.
