The Foreign Office is investigating reports that a British man has been shot dead in western Libya.

A Libyan security source told Reuters the Briton and a New Zealand woman were found with gunshot wounds in Mellitah.

Mellitah is near the town of Zuwarah, 60 miles (100km) west of Tripoli.

A Foreign Office spokeswoman said: "We are aware of reports that the bodies of two foreign nationals have been found in Libya and urgently seeking further information from the authorities."

Reports have suggested that the two people were both teachers and they were found next to their luggage.

Their belongings were apparently untouched and the motive for the killings remains unclear.

The security source said: "Their bodies were found near the coastal area of Mellitah."

The area is home to a large oil and gas complex co-owned by Italian company ENI.

The killings come a month after a US teacher was shot dead in the eastern city of Benghazi, after which the Foreign Office said further attacks against Westerners were likely and could be opportunistic.
