Ms Gonzales lived in the Los Angeles suburb of El Monte.

Mr Ribet received a master of laws degree from London School of Economics in 2014, and earlier did postgraduate work at the Sorbonne university in Paris. His law firm said he worked on the litigation team, specialising in white collar crime. "He was a talented lawyer, extremely well liked, and a wonderful personality in the office," the firm said

:: Patricia San Martin Nunez, 61, a Chilean exile, and her daughter, Elsa Veronique Delplace San Martin, 35. They were attending the concert at the Bataclan with Elsa's five-year-old son, who Chilean officials say survived. Ms San Martin Nunez had been exiled from Chile during the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet, and her daughter was born in France

Chile's foreign ministry described them as the niece and grandniece of Chile's ambassador to Mexico, Ricardo Nunez. "They were taken hostage, and so far we know they were killed in a cold and brutal manner," Mr Nunez told Radio Cooperativa. He said two people with them escaped alive

:: Valeria Solesin, 28, an Italian-born doctoral student at the Sorbonne. She had lived in Paris for several years and had gone to the concert at the Bataclan with her boyfriend. They lost track of each other as they tried to escape, and he and friends searched hospitals in hopes of finding her among the wounded when her name did not immediately appear on the list of the dead. Her mother, Luciana Milani, described her daughter as a "wonderful person". She told reporters in Venice: "We will miss her very much, and she will be missed, I can also say, by our country. People like this are important"

Ms Solesin had been working at the Sorbonne as a researcher while completing her doctorate. While at university in Italy, she worked as a volunteer for the Italian humanitarian aid group Emergency. "It is tragic that a person so young, who is trying to understand the world and to be a help, find herself involved in such a terrible event," said Emergency's regional co-ordinator in Trento, Fabrizio Tosini

The Paris correspondent for German public broadcaster ARD, Mathias Werth, wrote on Twitter that the man had been sitting on the terrace of a cafe when he was killed. Sweden's prime minister Stefan Lofven said a Swedish citizen was killed, and Mexico's government said two of its citizens, both women, were killed.
