The gunmen who carried out a brutal attack apparently let one person go unabated.
Days after terrorists killed 21 people at the National Bardo Museum in Tunis, the Tunisian government released CCTV video that displays two attackers maneuvering around the museum with guns and bags and allowing a third man to pass by them unharmed, the Associated Press reported.

Tunisia’s Interior Ministry posted the graphic video, which also shows the assailants after security forces shot them dead, on Saturday as authorities detained 20 people they suspect of helping Yassine Laabidi, 20, and Hatem Khachnaoui, 26, pull off the horrific deed, according to AP.

Both appear to be carrying deadly weapons they used in the attacks as they shuffle through museum corridors in the video. One is wearing a red hooded sweatshirt and the other is sporting a black baseball cap as the menacing pair move in empty halls.
Buzz Bestube via YouTubeThe identity of the third man has not yet been released, AP reported.
Yet when the two men nearly run into a third person who is descending a flight of stairs, they let the man walk by them before walking up the stairs themselves. The Tunisian government has not released an explanation or the man’s identity, AP reported.
