LONDON: The family of Kurt Cochran, the US tourist killed during a terror attack while in London with his wife to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary, spoke on Monday of “a humbling and difficult experience”.

Cochran’s wife, Melissa, sustained a broken leg, a broken rib and a cut to the head in last Wednesday’s attack outside the Houses of Parliament, and “her health is steadily improving,” her brother Clint Payne said.
