Family of 4th victim: Killer was pure evil

‘Lung punctured, broken ribs’

KHALID Masood was branded ‘scum and pure evil’ last night by the sister-in-law of a retired window cleaner killed in the attack.

Leslie Rhodes, 75, was mown down as he left St Thomas’s hospital after treatment for glaucoma.

From her home in Seaford, East Sussex, Audrey Rhodes – whose late husband Roy was Leslie’s brother – said: ‘He was lying there, everything was broken. Lung punctured, broken ribs, it was just terrible.’

Cricket fan Mr Rhodes, who never married or had children, lived in Clapham, South London.

Neighbour Christine Carney, 70, who was with him when his life support was switched off at King’s College Hospital, said he was ‘such a wonderful man’.

Mrs Carney and her husband Mick – who had known Mr Rhodes for 50 years – played him his favourite music by Queen. She added: ‘It was awful to see him lying there so still, not the active man I knew … The doctors said there were broken bones and internal bleeding, but it was his head injury that killed him.’

Another of the victims was the son of Ian Dyson, commissioner of the City of London Police.

William Dyson, 24, was on his way to a new job when he was struck by the car. Firearms officers at his father’s force were among those who flooded Westminster in the aftermath of the atrocity.

Yesterday a spokesman for City of London Police said: ‘He remains in hospital in a serious but not lifethreatening condition.’

Travis Frain, 19, who suffered a broken leg, arm and two fingers, was yesterday visited by Prince Charles at King’s College Hospital. The student was thrown over the bonnet of Masood’s 4x4.

Charles thanked hospital staff for their ‘marvellous efforts’.
