He shot during a robbery at an exchange office. 100,000 PLN reward for information [VIDEO]
Olsztyn police are searching for the perpetrator of a robbery at an exchange office in the city center. A masked assailant robbed gold worth 450,000 PLN on Friday evening and shot two people. The owner of the exchange office reported that one of the injured persons is in a medically induced coma.
Andrzej Jurkun, press officer of the Olsztyn police, stated that officers are still conducting operations aimed at apprehending the robbery suspect.
“Police secured evidence, recordings from surveillance cameras, and interviewed witnesses. A tracking dog team has been involved,” Jurkun said on Saturday. He added that police and prosecutors worked at the scene.
Late into the night, police blocked many roads in Olsztyn, checking every vehicle and also inspecting city buses. By Saturday morning, movement around the city returned to normal.
Shot company representatives
Just after 7 p.m. on Friday, a masked attacker entered FlyingAtom exchange office in Olsztyn, which deals in Bitcoin and gold sales. The owner, Dawid Muszyński, said the assailant took ounces of gold worth 450,000 PLN and shot two company representatives—a man and a woman.
“The condition of Paweł is serious; according to our information, he is in a medically induced coma,” Muszyński said on Saturday.
FlyingAtom is offering a 100,000 PLN reward to anyone who helps capture the robbery suspect.
Area search
Jurkun reported that police searched the nearby area and reviewed surveillance footage, but so far it has not led to the suspects arrest.
The FlyingAtom exchange office is located on the fourth floor of a skyscraper in central Olsztyn. The building also houses, among others, the Provincial Labor Office.

Polish crypto exchange employee in induced coma after armed attack
On Jan. 22, an attacker shot two employees at a cryptocurrency and gold exchange in the Polish city of Olsztyn, escaping with over $120,000 in gold.
Polish police have detained a suspect in an armed attack on FlyingAtom, a cryptocurrency and gold exchange in the city of Olsztyn in northeastern Poland. The incident, which occurred around 7 p.m. local time on Jan. 22, resulted in the injuries of two employees — one of whose situation was severe enough to necessitate an induced coma.
According to local media reports from Jan. 23, the masked attacker escaped with gold worth 450,000 zloty (roughly $120,000), fleeing the exchange's office on the fourth floor of a skyscraper in the city center. Following the incident, police secured the area and scoured surveillance footage, cordoning off multiple roads in the city and searching passing cars. Roads were re-opened by the following morning.
On Jan. 23, FlyingAtom publicized an announcement offering a prize of 100,000 zloty for any information that could help to identify the perpetrator.
A local crypto outlet reported on Jan. 24 that a suspect was subsequently detained in connection with the investigation. The outlet cited the press spokesman of the Municipal Police Headquarters in Olsztyn, Andrzej Jurkun, with a comment on the evening of Jan. 23 that “in Bydgoszcz [the police] detained a man who may be related to the attack. We do not provide more information, activities are underway. "
On Jan. 25, FlyingAtom published a Facebook post thanking the police for their successful capture of the suspect, as well as medical authorities for their ongoing care of the injured victims, appearing to confirm the earlier report of the suspect's detention. Since the attack, the exchange's office has been closed and will likely resume operations in early March, according to a post from Feb. 1.
While many criminal incidents related to cryptocurrency are perpetrated online, there is nonetheless a persistent risk of physical robbery in the industry. In late January, an armed gang posing as cryptocurrency buyers stole about 3.5 million Hong Kong dollars ($450,000) from a woman in Hong Kong. While she was luckily unscathed during the incident, other victims of cryptocurrency-related attacks have suffered kidnap and torture, or been forced to escape in highly dangerous circumstances.
