The couple have been identified as Boris Gurman, 69, and Sofia Gurman, 61, after their family gave a statement to the Sydney Morning Herald.

“We are heartbroken by the sudden and senseless loss of our beloved Boris and Sofia Gurman,” the family said.

“They had been married for 34 years, with their 35th wedding anniversary approaching in January. We were looking forward to celebrating Sofia’s 62nd birthday on Wednesday 17 December.”

Dashcam footage posted to the Chinese social media platform RedNote showed the moment Boris tackled the alleged shooter Sajid Akram on Campbell Parade in Bondi as he emerged from his car.
