Investigators in Krakow recovered four firearms—two aR-15 rifles and two pistols—as well as roughly 500 rounds of ammunition during a probe into a weekend shooting that killed six people and wounded 16, Xinhua reported.
Xinhua cited National Prosecutor’s Office spokesperson Przemyslaw Nowak as saying the weapons and ammunition were found on the gunman and in his car, and that investigators also collected a large number of spent cartridge cases. The number of shots fired is still being analyzed.
The BBC also reported that four firearms were found in the suspect’s vehicle, and noted the presence of two aR-15 rifles, but did not mention the amount of ammunition recovered.
The incident began when the gunman drove into Krakow’s Main Market Square on Saturday afternoon, fired at random passers‑by, and was shot and detained by police. He was later transported to the hospital where he died early on Monday, Xinhua said.
ABC News reported that the shooting left six people dead and 15 wounded. This count differs from Xinhua’s statement that 16 were injured, indicating a discrepancy between the two outlets.
