France’s anti-terrorism prosecutor says the man who killed three people in a Nice church was a Tunisian aged about 20 who entered the country from Italy.

Jean-Francois Ricard told a press conference that the man arrived in Italy by reaching the Mediterranean island of Lampedusa on September 20, and travelled to Paris on October 9.
