LONDON, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Britain's foreign office said on Sunday it was aware of the death of a British man in Texas and was in contact with authorities there.
The statement was issued in response to an enquiry about a Sky News report which said a gunman who had disrupted a religious service at a synagogue in Texas was British.
