Two Polish police officers who were injured as they pursued and detained the gunman in Kraków on Saturday have been hailed as heroes.
One of them is Jakub Kulik, a former paratrooper and volunteer firefighter, who was left critically injured after a close-range exchange of fire with the suspect, a 24-year-old Polish national who killed six and injured 17 in an attack believed to have been inspired by far-right ideologies.
