A man who went on a shooting spree in Krakow, Poland, has died. He passed away in the hospital after the incident.
Polish officials are now sharing more information about the gunman. They say the man was obsessed with Anders Behring Breivik. Breivik is the man who carried out a major mass murder in Norway years ago.
The Polish Justice Minister said there are strong signs that the shooter followed right-wing extremist ideas. This means he held intense, dangerous political beliefs that often lead to violence.
Police confirmed that a Scottish man was among those killed during the shooting. Authorities are still looking into the details of the attack to understand how it happened and what led the man to do it.
The situation is being treated very seriously by officials in Poland as they investigate the shooter’s past and his online activity.
