Mława riot
The Mława riot, or Mława incident, also described by Western commentators as the Mława pogrom, was a series of violent devastations and looting incidents on 26–27 June 1991 when a group of youth estimated at 200 individuals including young females invaded the homes of Roma residents of the Polish town of Mława causing them to flee.〔 Not a single Roma person was injured in the riot,〔 but the material losses were substantial affecting up to 40% of residences.〔 Many perpetrators were arrested on-site; a number of them sentenced to jail after a trial.〔 The violence, described by foreign media as motivated by racism and jealousy, received editorial condemnation.
==Background==
The immediate cause of the riot was a hit-and-run accident just before midnight on 23 June 1991 on the pedestrian crossing at Piłsudskiego and Zuzanny Morawskiej streets.〔 A speeding luxury car driven by seventeen-year-old Roman Packowski of Romani ethnicity hit and seriously injured two young pedestrians, killing one of them.〔 The driver fled the scene and hid from the police.〔 He was later convinced by the Roma elders to turn himself in.〔 Soon after the accident the local radio station informed that the driver had fled the scene. This claim was in fact true;〔Anna Giza-Poleszczuk i Jan Poleszczuk, "Cyganie i Polacy w Mławie konflikt etniczny czy społeczny?" prepared for CBOS, Warszawa, December 1992, pages 24 to 29〕 however, the driver fled after people who witnessed the accident already identified his vehicle.〔Beata Klimkiewicz (7 December 1999), ( The pogrom in Mława, Poland: no media influence on justice. ) ERRC.org〕 For the next two days the driver and his car were hidden among the local Roma community.〔〔
The accident victim who died from his injuries was the 21-year-old Jaroslaw Pinczewski. The mayor of Mława, Adam Chmielinski informed that he died at the scene.〔 Other victim, seventeen-year old Katarzyna Zakrzewska, suffered permanent physical incapacitation.
