York man, 19, shot and injured in Krakow attack

Harry Marchant, from York, suffered a gunshot wound in the attack on Saturday, which began shortly before 15:00 local time (14:00 GMT) in Krakow's busy Main Market Square. The 24-year-old attacker, who died in hospital on Monday, fatally shot four Polish citizens, a British national and an Austrian woman, while a further 15 people, including two police officers, were injured.

"We can't express how grateful we are to the first responders, medical team, and the people of Poland for their help and care for Harry," they added. Twin sisters Sienna and Rimini Chapman were also in Krakow at the time of the incident and said they "ran for our lives" when they heard shots.

The 20-year-olds, from Northallerton, North Yorkshire, were part of a group celebrating a friend's 21st birthday in Poland when the gunfire sounded. "At first I thought the shots were to scare the pigeons away, but then everyone suddenly started running towards us," Sienna said.
