A security council meeting has been announced and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk is heading to Kraków following the market-square shooting, according to RaiNews, the news channel of Italy's public broadcaster RAI. Barbara Gruden's TG3 report follows the attack from the first bursts of gunfire to the police response and emergency treatment on nearby sidewalks.

The report cites a police toll of six people killed and at least 15 injured, including three officers. Amateur footage shows people running across the square and searching for shelter as shots ring out. Gruden reports that the gunman fired at passersby from a moving car.

A separate social-media recording shows an officer holding the suspect at gunpoint on the ground. According to the report, the suspect is a Polish citizen and is being held under police guard in hospital. Gruden describes him as the only known attacker, without giving a motive.

The report also describes an automatic weapon, military clothing and a car without license plates. Its closing images show police vehicles and ambulances stationed in the city center, with the area cordoned off as emergency crews attend to the wounded.
