A KINGLASSIE woman and her boyfriend were only some five minutes from the Tunisian hotel where the mass killings took place on Friday.

More than 30 British holidaymakers died as a gunman splayed bullets on a beach at Sousse in Tunisia.

Carrie Haldane and Steven McSorley were on holiday at a nearby hotel and were shocked by the carnage that ensued.

Carrie, a student, and Steven were caught up in the mayhem that broke out in the resort as a result of the attack and were just relieved to get home on Sunday.
