Paris attacks: First British victim named as Nick Alexander from Colchester

Nick Alexander, 36, was the first British victim named from the Paris attacks.

The girlfriend of a band crew member who lost his life in the Bataclan during the Paris terror attacks has paid tribute to her “sweet prince” and “the love of my life”.

Here’s what you need to know.

David Cameron has warned “we must be prepared for a number of British casualties” after almost 130 people died in “brutal” attacks in Paris.

Paris prosecutor Francois Molins told reporters at a news source conference Sat.in that there have been 129 people killed & 352 wounded. His back was to me and I couldn’t see what happened and I tried to keep him talking and then I tried to give him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and [the gunmen] were just sort of in the shadows and they would shoot if anyone said anything. She was dining with fellow Cal State Long Beach students at a Paris restaurant when she was killed, theLos Angeles Times reported. “Nick was in front of me when we were lying on the ground and somebody moved and [the terrorists] just turned round and started shooting us”, said Wilson, speaking from a hospital where she was being treated for gunshot wounds in both legs. “She was 23 and her name was Justine”, she said.

The UK PM, who convened a Cobra emergency response committee meeting on Saturday, said Britain’s terror threat level remained at “severe”, but the Paris attacks would prompt a review.

All seven of the gunmen either blew themselves up or were shot dead by security forces. “They were simply going about their way of life”.

“They were killed and injured by brutal and callous murderers who want to destroy everything our two countries stand for: peace, tolerance, liberty”.

We’d been working with him for years. The fact that he seems to have given his life to save another will be a lasting testament to what a lovely guy he was’. I hold out hope that as many people as possible make it out ok, as well.

A safety check page has been set up on Facebook on which people in the area can confirm they are okay.

“In response to last night’s awful events in Paris, department officials in Paris and in Dublin have been working through the night to monitor the situation and provide consular assistance”, Foreign Affairs Minister Charlie Flanagan said.
