Third attacker at Bataclan venue identified, says police source
The two other attackers have already been named.
A POLICE SOURCE says that the third bomber at Paris’s Bataclan music hall has been identified.
AFP is reporting this morning that the source says the person has been identified, but they have not been officially named.
Le Parisien newspapers did name the man, but this name has not been confirmed, reports the BBC.
Ninety people died during the attack in the popular music venue Le Bataclan last month.
The two other attackers – who blew themselves up inside the venue – have been named as Omar Ismail Mostef and Samy Amimour, both from France.
Members of the band Eagles of Death Metal, who were playing at the venue on the night of the attack, went to the Bataclan scene yesterday to pay tribute to those who died.
More as we get it.
