  • A gunman suspected of killing six people during a mass shooting in Krakow, Poland, has died in hospital, police say.
  • Polish prosecutors are treating the attack, which left 15 people injured, as a terror incident suspected to be inspired by far-right ideology.
  • The 24-year-old suspect drove through Main Market Square on Saturday, firing at random from his car with a military-style rifle, police said.
  • A British national was among the victims killed in Krakow, while the bodies of the suspected gunman's parents and sister were later found shot at his home.
  • Senior Constable Jakub Kulik is fighting for his life in hospital after confronting the attacker, prompting a police blood appeal.
