Incident at a plant store

On Sunday, 8 November, just before closing time, a man dressed in a military uniform entered the Roslinnik store in the centre of Lodz. He asked a 23-year-old employee to take him to the toilet. As the woman led him to the back room, the stranger stated that, according to him, he had allegedly been ordered to kill several civilians, and that such an order had supposedly been given by the command.

Staff reaction and property damage

The witness to the incident immediately called the owner of the establishment. The latter recommended that she leave the premises and lock the man inside. According to Express Ilustrowany, the man began hitting the protective glass with furniture and also used a grinder to break the windows.

Calling the authorities

The store owner contacted the 112 emergency service twice — the calls were made at 16:02 and 16:08. At 16:13, the employee contacted the police station located 160 metres from the store.

Explanation of police actions

According to the publication, police arrived at the scene 36 minutes after the first report. However, police spokesperson Kamila Sowinska emphasised that the authorities acted in accordance with established procedures. She noted a 19-minute delay after receiving the appeal, explaining this by the fact that the official call was registered at 16:08.
