The investigation into Kraków's mass shooting has reached the suspect's home, where police found the bodies of his parents and sister, according to Italy's public broadcaster Rai News. Barbara Gruden's Tg2 report says all three had been shot.
The report identifies the suspected attacker as Michał Okszyński and says the street shooting left six people dead and sixteen injured before a wounded police officer stopped him. The suspect was seriously wounded. The report presents the discovery at the house separately from the street attack's casualty count.
Investigators seized seven firearms and a substantial quantity of ammunition, according to the broadcaster. Prosecutors have opened a terrorism investigation, but the report does not describe a completed finding about the motive.
Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński says the suspect was drawn to far-right ideologies and held radical, ultranationalist views. Gruden also describes conflicting recollections from people who knew him: some remembered a cheerful person, while others spoke of a fascination with death. Those accounts do not establish why the attack happened.
Prime Minister Donald Tusk appears at an official meeting as the report describes tensions between Poland's government and opposition. Its closing images show police maintaining a presence in Kraków's central square.
The video's title, "Cracovia: a casa del killer i corpi dei genitori e della sorella", means "Krakow: bodies of parents and sister found at killer's home". Its central development is the discovery at the house, alongside the widening investigation into the shooting.
