17 Tourists, 2 Attackers Killed In Tunis Siege, 3 Gunmen At Large

    (CNN)Gunmen killed 17 tourists and two others -- one of them a Tunisian security officer -- on Wednesday at a museum in Tunisia's capital in what the North African nation's Prime Minister called a "cowardly" terrorist attack.

           Tunisian security forces managed to kill two attackers and end a hostage siege at the Bardo Museum in Tunis, Prime Minister Habib Essid said.
             But the bloodshed isn't necessarily over, with Essid saying that authorities are looking for three other gunmen.
"It's a cowardly attack mainly targeting the economy of Tunis," the Prime Minister said. "We should unite to defend our country."
