According to a witness, “When the shooting began people just fled in terror. He fired a shot at the man and that’s when panic broke out. He then shot himself in the head.”
Police spokesman Andrzej Borowiak said that the two men aged 30 and 31 had both died in the incident that took place on Sunday evening.
According to reports, Domagała, a blogger and artist who also worked as a local councillor and Harmacińska had been enjoying a romantic weekend when the killer struck.
Posting on social media, Domagała’s stunned friend, Kamil Grzebyta, said: “I don’t know where to begin because today’s news has shocked me so much that it’s hard to find the words.
“Some news reports can evoke a lot of emotions in a person, but true sadness is felt only when tragedy affects your loved ones and friends.
“Yesterday, in broad daylight, a young boy was shot dead in front of his fiancée.
“He was probably the most positive and cheerful person I’ve ever known. He was an artist, a blogger, always smiling and kind.”
He further said, “But just as shocking was the discovery that his murderer was also an acquaintance of mine.
“He is also a young, intelligent man with prospects that I would never have expected to pick up a gun and fire a shot.
“I can’t imagine what must have gone through his mind to commit such a cruel crime, but it is unforgivable.”
Another friend of the victim said, “This death makes no sense. He was murdered for simply falling in love.”
Bachosz was a legal clerk with a “bright future” who “tracked the couple down on social media”, according to local reports.
Bachosz and Domagała’s fiancée had reportedly been in a relationship which he could not accept had ended.
Police also said, “The perpetrator had had permission to own a gun for sporting purposes since 2018. The motive: unrequited love. A post-mortem is planned for tomorrow.”
