Polish leaders join thousands at silent march in Kraków for mass shooting victims

Political rivals lead crowd starting from city’s market square where attack unfolded while mourners stop at memorial for six people killed

Tens of thousands of people joined a silent march in Kraków on Monday evening, led by Poland’s president and prime minister, in tribute to the victims of a mass shooting that shocked the country over the weekend.

They set off from the city’s historic market square, where the attack unfolded on Saturday afternoon. Mourners stopped at a flower-covered memorial marking the spot where the gunman opened fire from his car, killing six people and wounding 15 others.
