The California man who was separated from his wife in the chaotic moments of Thursday's terrorist attack in Barcelona, Spain, was among the 13 killed at the scene, his family said Friday.
The father of 42-year-old Jared Tucker, Dan Tucker, told NBC News that Tucker's wife, Heidi Nunes, confirmed her husband's death. The Walnut Creek couple were in Europe celebrating their first wedding anniversary and had just enjoyed drinks on Barcelona's wide, largely pedestrianized tourist street of La Rambla when their relaxing vacation was shattered by sharp cries.
"Next thing I know there's screaming, yelling," Nunes, a 40-year-old teacher, earlier told NBC News. "I got pushed inside the souvenir kiosk and stayed there hiding while everybody kept running by screaming."
