One man has been killed and a policeman injured as a shootout between police and street traders in Warsaw took place on Sunday morning.
The event happened after police were undertaking routine checks of traders in Warsaw’s Praga district.
Initial reports say that the 36-year old Nigerian was aggressive and attacked the officers on duty, trying to take one of their guns. It was then that the lethal shots were fired.
Police spokesman Mariusz Sokolowski told journalists that “they were probably dealing illegal substances.” Investigators and a prosecutor are at the scene, with statements being gathered from witnesses. (jb)
