New information about the health condition of the seriously injured policeman. The voivode reveals

Krzysztof Klęczar spoke about the current condition of the injured on Polsat News. At the moment, 16 people remain in hospitals. At 2 p.m. we can say that they are in a stable condition. One of the policemen remains in a serious condition, although significantly better than a few or a dozen hours ago. The only person who is in a very serious, even critical condition is the perpetrator of the attack, he said.

When asked about the safety of city residents in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship, he pointed out the very quick action of all services after the first shots were fired by the 24-year-old perpetrator of the attack and his immediate capture. Therefore - in the voivode's opinion - the mass closing of urban spaces where people gather should be approached with caution.

We have to take care of safety and we will take care of it, but we cannot reduce it only to mechanical harassment or traffic restrictions. Because there are many more threats, he explained.

"He did unimaginable evil"

The voivode of Lesser Poland emphasized that the attacker, who killed a total of nine people, had committed unimaginable evil, but - as he said - we must look for the good.

The manifestation of good here is the social reaction. Nearly 40 calls to the medical dispatch center, many more to the emergency notification center. The services responded quickly, but also the excellent attitude of the witnesses at the scene. They set out to help, saving lives, he noted.

He pointed to the attitude of two Krakow surgeons who, right after the exchange of fire, most likely saved the life of the most injured policeman involved in the arrest of the perpetrator.

There is more of this good and we cannot allow this man to destroy everything that Krakow and Małopolska have built over the years with his cruel and terrible act of terror. Krakow was safe, Poland was safe, is safe and will be safe. Just like the city of Krakow - he assured.

The attacker shot at random people

On Saturday afternoon, a masked 24-year-old drove his car into the Krakow Market Square and started shooting at people there. After an exchange of fire with the police, he was injured and detained.

As a result of the attack, six people were killed and 16 were injured - including two policemen and the attacker.

In the apartment of the attacker's family in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, police found the bodies of three members of his immediate family.
