The video shows the new suspect in a black Seat car with two other attackers, opening fire with assault rifles through
its window at customers at a bar in central Paris. The car was later found abandoned in Paris suburb of Montreuil, with three AK-47 rifles in it.
On the same night, three attackers died at the Bataclan theatre, and three more at the Stade de France. If there were three people in the Seat, it would bring the total number of attackers to nine.

himself up on Paris’s Boulevard Voltaire. His brother Salah Abdeslam is on the run and is the target of a Europe-wide manhunt.
