British DJ James Campbell Identified Among Six Krakow Shooting Victims

The British DJ James Campbell, 32, from Prestwick, South Ayrshire, has been identified as one of the six victims of the fatal shooting in Krakow's market square on November 7. The gunman, a 24-year-old Polish national, died in hospital after being critically wounded in a shootout with police following the attack.

Authorities had launched a terrorism investigation into the suspect, citing his alleged far-right and "ultranationalistic" views, though prosecutors later stated it was too early to definitively link him to any specific ideology. The attack, which also claimed the lives of the gunman's parents and sister found at his home, has deeply shaken Poland, a country known for its safety. The bravery of officers Jakub Kulik and Artur Morański in confronting the shooter has been lauded, with Officer Kulik sustaining critical injuries that required surgery.

In the wake of the tragedy, thousands of Poles participated in silent marches to honor the victims, demonstrating national unity. The incident has also sparked political debate, with the government blaming the far-right for inspiring the gunman and the opposition criticizing security measures.
