CNN: Tunisia museum attack: President says 3rd person took part, on the run

Tunis (CNN)Tunisian President Beji Caid Essebsi confirmed that a third person took part in last week's Bardo museum terror attack in an interview Sunday with French TV Station iTele.

 "There were for certain three terrorists," Essebsi said. "There is one on the run. He will not get far."

 Previously two suspects had been identified -- Yassine Labidi and Saber Khachnaou -- though it wasn't immediately clear if they were the pair killed at the museum by Tunisian security forces.

 He said Yassine was "known to the security services, he was flagged and monitored," but not known or being followed for anything special.
