Why It Matters
Michał O. is suspected of shooting in Krakow and killing his family in his hometown of Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski.
»The mood is definitely very depressed. I'm here in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, the town where the suspected Krakow shooter is said to come from. Here he is also said to have killed his family, his parents and his sister. Most of the residents here didn't notice anything about the crime itself. That's why everyone is absolutely shocked by this act, including what happened in Krakow. They can't believe that it's a person they've seen on the street here often, who they've met several times a week.
Most people describe Michał O. as a very reserved guy, whether in the supermarket or on the street, he mostly walked around with a hoodie, rarely said "Hello," and was always a rather quiet person.
However, I also spoke to a woman whose children are said to have gone to school with Michał O. And she said that the children then reported that Michał O. had made various drawings that were supposedly about death or about Adolf Hitler. That means he's probably noticed some strange behavior at school.
Right now there are only a few police officers patrolling in front of the house, probably to protect the residents. Apart from that, there are also a lot of onlookers who came here from Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski or from neighboring towns because they have never experienced anything like this in the area.”
