How the deadly shooting in Krakow unfolded

Six people were killed and several others injured when a gunman opened fire in central Krakow, Poland's second largest city, on Saturday. Footage authenticated by BBC Verify shows about a dozen people running inside two buildings before a black car with its front window open passes, followed by a police car. Poland's interior minister described the suspect - a 25-year-old Polish citizen - as being inspired by "far-right ideologies"; police said he used "military weapons" in the attack. Hours after the attack, Polish PM Donald Tusk said three other bodies were found at the suspect's home, which is still being searched.
