A Thai man on holiday with his wife was among those killed in the terrorist shooting at the famed Christmas market in Strasbourg, France, on Tuesday night - only a day after they arrived.
Anupong Suebsaman, 45, was shot in the head while visiting the crowded night market with his wife, Naiyana.
He was among the three people killed in the terrorist attack in which 12 others were wounded by the lone gunman.
It was reported the couple had arrived in France only a day before the incident.
The Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday said that the shooting occured about 8pm Strasbourg time. It was the act of a single gunman who was identified and being hunted. The suspect was on the French security authorities' blacklist as a "potential radical".
Anupong was severely wounded and later died. He and his wife were on a visit to Strasbourg and Paris. The Thai embassy in Paris was arranging for accommodation for his wife, the ministry said.
