Barcelona, August 18 (TNS): Officials on Friday named two Italians, as first announced victims of Thursday’s terror attack in Barcelona.
Italy’s Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni said on Twitter that Bruno Gulotta, a father-of-two, and Luca Russo were among the 13 killed after a vehicle mowed down crowds of people on Las Ramblas, a pedestrianized thoroughfare in the heart of the city, on Thursday.
Gulotta was on holiday with his partner Martina and two children, five-year-old son Alessandro and daughter Aria, who is a few months old, according to his employer.
“Yesterday afternoon in Barcelona the terrorists killed friend and colleague Bruno Gulotta,” his employer, Tom’s Hardware Italia, said in a statement Friday. “Today is a day of mourning.”
Meanwhile, a massive manhunt was carried out across Spain for the man suspected of killing 13 people and injuring scores on Barcelona’s Las Ramblas.
Spanish media named the man being sought as 18-year-old Moussa Oukabir.
He is suspected of using his brother’s documents to rent the van that mowed down people on the famous boulevard.

Hours later, police killed five suspected militants in a second vehicle attack in the town of Cambrils. A woman injured in that attack died later.
Police said the men killed in Cambrils were linked to the Barcelona attack, which the Islamic State group said it had carried out.
Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy condemned what he called a “jihadist attack” in Barcelona. He has announced three days of national mourning and a minute’s silence was held at noon (10:00 GMT) on Friday.
