Police and prosecutors are investigating after a woman's body was found on Tuesday afternoon, 13 October 2026, in a residential building on Dąbrowskiego Street in central Częstochowa. Unofficial reports say she was a lawyer and may have died from a gunshot, but police have not confirmed these details.
Discovery in the city centre
Emergency services received a signal shortly before 14:00 on Tuesday, 13 October 2026, and found the woman's body in one of the buildings on Dąbrowskiego Street. Super Express reported that the call came in before 14:00, while Dziennik Zachodni described the discovery as taking place in the afternoon.
