One attacker involved in the Bataclan theatre shooting and hostage-taking on Friday night has been identified as a French national through finger prints, French TV BFMTV reported Saturday, citing a police source.
The suspected attacker was identified through finger prints the investigators collected at the site. The suspect is known to French intelligence service, said BFMTV.
Meanwhile, one Syrian and one Egyptian passport were found next to French national stadium Stade de France where at least two explosions went off.
Verification is being done to cross-check the information on those two IDs.
