A bystander who tackled and disarmed one of the Bondi Beach gunmen has been identified as Ahmed al-Ahmed, a 43-year-old fruit shop owner from Sydney's Sutherland Shire.
Video footage shows Ahmed, wearing a white T-shirt, charging one of the shooters from behind, wrestling away his rifle and then pointing it at the attacker, who retreated towards a bridge where the second gunman was positioned.
