The brother of a victim of the New Orleans attack has revealed what the pair last said to each other.
“The last thing we ever said to each other, he told me he loved me”, Jack Bech said of his brother Martin “Tiger” Bech, as he spoke with Sky News’s US correspondent James Matthews.
“I told him I love him, he told me he loves me even more, hung up the phone and that was the last words I ever spoke to him.”
The pair spoke on the phone, just hours before Tiger was one of the 14 people killed in the attack in Bourbon Street, where people celebrating the New Year were run down by a man driving a pick-up truck.
