Danijel B. (22), a young man who seriously wounded a police officer on St. Mark's Square in Zagreb, Croatia this morning and then committed suicide, was a fan of the music of Marko Perkovic Thomson, Miroslav Skoro and Mate Miso Kovac, and fantasized about killing Serbs.

Hina agency reports that in previous years, Daniel B. posted recordings of Thompson's, Skoro's and Kovac's songs on social networks, as well as footage of the testing of sniper rifles and heavy machine guns.

In one of the videos of the sniper rifle test, he wrote: "To be one of them, to take out Serbs."

The front page of the Facebook profile of the young man, who committed suicide after the shooting on St. Mark's Square, contains a photo from a war movie directed by Steven Spielberg.

This morning, shortly after 8 o'clock, Danijel opened fire on St. Mark's Square, shotting at the buildings of the Croatian government and parliament. A policeman who was securing the government building was seriously wounded in the burst of fire.

After the attack, Danijel fled, and then committed suicide on the other side of town. He previously posted a status on Facebook.
