Families pay tribute to Britons killed in Thai beach resort; police hunt killer

The families of two Britons battered to death on a popular Thai resort island have paid tribute to them, as police said they were looking for a British man in connection with their killings.

The bodies of the two tourists, identified as David Miller, 24, and Hannah Witheridge, 23, were found on a beach on the small southern island of Koh Tao on Monday.
In a statement issued by the British Embassy in Bangkok, Witheridge's family said she was "a beautiful, intelligent, loving young woman who poured joy into the lives of all who knew her" and they were "utterly devastated and shocked by what has happened."
Miller's family said: "David was an artist by temperament, so talented. He had a creative eye that he carried with him through life and in his degree. He was hard-working, bright and conscientious, with everything to look forward to."
