Hunt for Third Tunisia Museum Attacker
Tunisia’s president said a hunt is underway for a third attacker after more than 20 people were killed by gunmen at a museum in the country’s capital last week.
Speaking with French TV network iTele from inside the Bardo Museum on Sunday, President Beji Caid Essebsi said the attack involved “three aggressors” and the third man escaped, the Associated Press reported.
Surveillance video of two gunmen walking through the museum was released by the Tunisian Interior Ministry on Saturday. The footage shows the attackers carrying bags and assault rifles. They encounter a man as he comes down some stairs and point their weapons at him, before he flees.
