A Kiwi woman was holidaying with the parents of a man killed in Friday's Denver cinema massacre.
Kim Millwood, of Hamilton, was with Tom and Caren Iacovelli Teves in Hawaii when they learned their 24-year-old son, Alex, was shot dead in the attack, which left 12 people dead and nearly 60 injured.
"It's so unreal - to think that yesterday we were eating a fabulous lunch and chatting happily about her wonderful boys," Millwood wrote on her Facebook page.
"I am so gutted for her and Tom."
She said they thought Alex was missing and his fiancee Amanda had been killed. But yesterday they learned it was Alex who had died.
