Absolutely awful, that's the very centre of Krakow and every tourist who has been will have visited that square at least once 
Even though I went around 14 years ago in November it was busy then, I can imagine today would have been absolutely packed.
Will refrain from commenting on motives until more information comes out, is Poland another European country with fairly relaxed gun laws?
RIP to those killed.

k me. Was there not long ago. Beautiful city and felt very safe there. Shocked.Several videos and photos on Reddit showing the suspect being shot by the police (unfortunately the policeman then collapsed)
The shooter was dressed full on army gear/camouflage, the weapon is said to have been an AR-15 rifle. I don't know enough about rifles to confirm that, but it certainly looked like a military grade rifle with a scope. The rifle is also covered in camouflage.

AR-15s are not military grade rifles. The shooter was dressed full on army gear/camouflage, the weapon is said to have been an AR-15 rifle. I don't know enough about rifles to confirm that, but it certainly looked like a military grade rifle with a scope. The rifle is also covered in camouflage.

I thought it was a point worth making.

This is the weapon in question, I have blurred the suspect being arrested as they had been shot. Also those are people assisting with the arrest, not victims lying on the floor.

As an aside.
If anyone knows krakow and the square you will know to get to the square from any direction it’s a fair walk through densely populated streets. How has he managed to get to the square without anyone being alerted. Also all the times I have been you are always seeing the police. Absolutely tragic.
