The perpetrator of the armed attack that left 6 dead and 15 injured in Krakow has died this morning in hospital. He was wounded by a police officer who neutralized him after he opened fire on citizens and was in serious condition.

Authorities have confirmed his identity: Michal Oksinski, 24, a turner by trade. He had studied to be a mechanic at a vocational school.

According to testimonies broadcast by local radio station Eska, from a young age he had difficulty forming social relationships. Former schoolmates have said that during class he often drew people hanging from ropes or armed during an attack.

"When we asked him for explanations, he would say it was an attack on a school and that he was the attacker," one woman said.
She added that Michal only paid attention during class when the topic was related to history.

According to authorities, he had no criminal record and possessed a gun permit. 

Initially, news spread that he had used combat weapons during the attack, according to a police spokesman: "Some weapons and ammunition were found in his abandoned car at the intersection of Dietla and Stradomska streets."

This information had initially led to the belief that the person had connections to the armed forces, in a country where shootings are very rare and the legislation on gun possession is quite strict. However, the news that it was a soldier was denied yesterday evening by the Warsaw government.

Oksinski had driven about 150 kilometers to Krakow from his home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, a city of 75,000 people located along the Kamienna River with a history linked to the metallurgical industry. The city is known as one of the most enlightened settlements in the country.

In his house, the police found only darkness and death: three dead people, his closest relatives. They are his 53-year-old father, his 52-year-old mother and his 21-year-old sister. They suffered the same tragic fate as the four women and two men who lost their lives in Krakow's Market Square. Four of the victims were Polish, one British and one Austrian.

Among the 15 injured, five of whom were foreign citizens from various countries (Austria, Germany, Russia, Ukraine and Portugal), hospitalized at the Krakow University Hospital, were two police officers, Jakub Kulik and Artur Moranski.

They intervened just three minutes after the first shots were fired, trying to stop the attacker.

One of them is in critical condition after being shot three times while trying to subdue the 24-year-old. The incident is documented in a shocking video, which shows the attacker lying on the ground and the police officer on top of him, trying to keep him under control, before he collapses after being hit by bullets.

According to the preliminary reconstruction of the event, the perpetrator began shooting from inside his car, as he arrived at the square from Sławkowska Street, wearing a military-style camouflage uniform.

The information about his profile is still insufficient to create a complete portrait.

Interior Minister Marcin Kierwinski stated yesterday evening during a press conference that preliminary investigations indicate that he is an “ultranationalist” inspired by “far-right ideologies,” although this information “still needs to be fully verified.” One of the hypotheses that investigators are examining is the possibility that he was radicalized via the internet.

The testimony of another former schoolmate, also broadcast by international media, reflects the shock of someone who cannot comprehend what happened in Market Square.

"He was a quiet boy. I thought he had started his studies at university," the young man said.
According to Polish media, Michal was a co-owner of a shooting range with his father.

"Often on Sundays, while I was doing the kitchen chores, I would see the father and son getting into the car, dressed in camouflage uniforms and carrying large bags," a neighbor of the family told reporters, quoted by TVN24.
The father owned ten firearms, while the son also had his own. He had four of them with him on the day of the attack.

In Poland, a country of 37 million people, 411,000 people have regular permits to carry weapons. According to media reports, interest in weapons is growing.

Investigators will examine in detail the attacker's life, including his passion for school attacks, which he had shown since childhood through drawings.
