FollowA tragic shooting incident at a downtown restaurant in the Polish city of Poznan resulted in the deaths of two men, as reported by the local police. According to the spokesperson for Poznan police, Andrzej Borowiak, the shooting occurred in the hotel restaurant garden on St Martin Street in Poznan Old Town, an area frequented by tourists.
One of the men was killed instantly, while the other succumbed to his injuries at the hospital. The victims were identified as Mikołaj Bachosz and Kordian Domagała, both residents of Poznan.
