“The gunman was allegedly shooting from a close range, aiming at the head and neck,” he said. “We identified the gunman using hospital cameras. We deployed two helicopters, identified his car... and when one helicopter descended over the car, he shot himself in the head,” Kuzel told reporters. Czech Minister of the Interior Jan Hamacek said the man died despite resuscitation efforts. The public Czech Radio identified the killer as a builder from the nearby Opava District.
