A promising Russian student and a father and son from America are among the 84 killed in yesterday’s brutal Bastille Day attack.
Russian student Victoria Savchenko, 21, was killed instantly when she was hit by the truck as she walked with her friend Polina Serebryannikova, 22, in Nice last night.
A father and son from Texas, Sean Copeland, 51, and Brodie, 11, have also been killed, his family confirmed on social media today.
Among the French who were killed in the horrific attack were a Muslim mother, Fatima Chahhiri, and Robert Marchland, 60, an industrial supervisor from the small rural town of Marcigny.
German authorities also said that two students, aged 17 and 18, and a teacher from Berlin had lost their lives as a gunman mowed down crowds celebrating Bastille Day last night.
A French family of four, Francis and Christiane Locatelli, 82 and 78, and their daughter, Véronique Lion, 55, and grandson, Michael Pellegrini, 28, were also killed, La Republiicain Lorrain reported.
The assistant commissioner of border police in Nice is also believed to be among the victims of the killer, a 31-year-old French-Tunisian national named locally as Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel.
Francois Hollande today said that as well as the 84 dead, some 50 people were ‘between life and death’ and ‘many foreigners are dead’.
Hollande, looking somber and flanked by French Prime Minister Manuel Valls, said that ‘it’s to hit France that this individual committed this terrorist act.’
