"The person was fighting for his life," said an official of the prosecutor's office.
The shooter, Cherif Chekatt, was killed on Thursday night (13), after shooting at the police, ending a two-day pursuit involving more than 700 members of the security forces.
Chekatt killed three people Tuesday night and injured several after shooting at Christmas shoppers in the French city, one of the oldest and most traditional in Europe. The case was treated as an act of terrorism.
This Thursday (13), the Islamic State claimed responsibility through its agency, Amaq. The group said that Chekatt was one of their "soldiers".
