British national among six killed in Krakow terror shooting

A 25-year-old gunman opened fire on Krakow's Main Market Square on Saturday afternoon, killing six people, including a British national, and injuring 16 others. Three additional victims — two women and one man believed to be the shooter's close family — were found dead at his home in Ostrowiec Swietokrzyski. Prime Minister Donald Tusk declared two days of national mourning and called the attack an act of terrorism; Poland's interior minister said everything indicated the suspect was inspired by far-right ideologies, though he stressed this needed to be verified. Also in this briefing: the UK and EU prepare to finalize major agreements on food standards, emissions trading, and youth mobility; brief updates on UK interest rates, an Ebola case in London, and Russell Brand's conviction; and Monty Don steps down from Gardeners' World after 23 years.
