A police officer in Dzia\u0142dowo accidentally discharged her service weapon into the floor on Thursday morning while retrieving it from storage, though authorities confirmed that no injuries were reported. <\/p>\n
The Olsztyn Regional Police Headquarters confirmed that an accidental discharge occurred Thursday morning at the Dzia\u0142dowo District Police Station. A female officer was drawing her service weapon when the incident took place.<\/p>\n
The District Police Commander in Dzia\u0142dowo has initiated investigative procedures. Additionally, inspectors from the Oversight Department of the Olsztyn Regional Police are currently reviewing the circumstances of the event, and the public prosecutor has been notified.<\/p>\n
This is not an isolated incident within the force. In December, a firearm discharged at a police station in Pionkach, Masovian Voivodeship, following an interrogation conducted by two officers.<\/p>\n
Reports indicate that the weapon fired while officers were preparing a detainee for transport to the prosecutor’s office. Fortunately, no one was injured during this event, which is now the subject of a prosecutorial investigation.<\/p>\n
The most prominent incident occurred on December 14, 2022, at the National Police Headquarters, involving then-commander General Jaros\u0142aw Szymczyk. The Interior Ministry stated that a “gift” received during a visit to Ukraine\u2014an RGW-90 anti-tank weapon\u2014detonated inside the building.<\/p>\n
Szymczyk claimed he believed the weapons were inert and intended to move them when the explosion occurred. The blast left both the commander and a civilian employee with minor injuries and caused structural damage to the ceiling and floor.<\/p>\n
In January of last year, the Warsaw District Prosecutor’s Office indicted Szymczyk, charging him with unintentionally creating a danger to the lives and health of many people. Prosecutors allege the weapon was fully functional and that the former commander had disengaged the safety mechanism shortly before the blast occurred.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
