Among the other confirmed French victims were 28-year-old economics teacher Michael Pellegrini and 60-year-old athletics club president Robert Marchand. Also killed was border police commissioner Emmanuel Grout, 45, who was off duty and had been on the Promenade des Anglais to watch the annual fireworks display, local media said. Germany: A German teacher and two of her students from the capital’s Paula-Fuerst School were killed, the Berlin mayor’s office said.
