Body of British woman Angela Glover found in Tonga following tsunami, says brother
The body of a British woman swept away by the tsunami in Tonga has been found, her brother says.
He said he understands her body was found by her husband James, who managed to cling to a tree when the wave hit, following the eruption of a volcano.It is the first known death of the disaster, caused by the eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai volcano on Saturday, about 40 miles north of Tonga's capital Nuku'alofa, where the Glovers lived.
He said they had become "well-loved by locals and ex-pats alike", as he ran a tattoo parlour called the Happy Sailor, employing and training Tongans, while she founded the Tongan Animal Welfare Society.
