A British tourist has been shot dead in a bar in Texas. Thomas Reeve, 28, was killed in the city of Amarillo when shots were fired at several drinkers, Britain's Foreign Office confirmed.

The attack happened at the Spotted Pony Lounge in the town at about 10:45 p.m. local time on Thursday.

Police said Reeve arrived in Amarillo a few hours before the shooting. He was traveling across the U.S. with two friends.

He died at Northwest Texas hospital after being shot in the torso. An autopsy was being performed in Lubbock, the Amarillo Globe-News reported.

Reeve was drinking in the bar with his friends. They had rented a car in California and stopped in Amarillo on a trip to Florida.

A Foreign Office spokeswoman said: "We can confirm the death of Thomas Reeve and we are providing consular assistance to the family."
