ATTACKER DIES IN HOSPITAL

KRAKOW, NOVEMBER 9 /SRNA/ – The gunman who killed six people in Krakow on Saturday has died in hospital, Polish police said.

Police said the attacker had died early this morning, the BBC reported.

Prosecutors said the gunman was inspired by far-right ideology. He was wounded in an exchange of fire with security forces in Krakow, Poland's second-largest city.

The attacker drove into the city's main square and began shooting at random passersby. He also fired at a tram.

Officials said armed police arrived at the scene very quickly and exchanged fire with the suspect. He was hit three minutes after the attack began, preventing further bloodshed.

Krakow Mayor Lukasz Gibala declared four days of mourning, through November 11.
