A California teacher said her construction worker husband vanished after the vacationing couple was caught in the middle of Thursday’s terror attack in Barcelona.

The State Department announced Friday that one American was killed and one was injured in the terror attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils, Spain. The department did not identify the victims.

Heidi Nunes, 40, of Walnut Creek, Calif. said she and her husband Jared Tucker, 42, were in Europe celebrating their one-year wedding anniversary, according to NBC News. The two had already made stops in Paris and Venice. Nunes said the couple were savoring drinks in the famous tourist area of La Ramblas when chaos broke out.
