Search teams attempting to locate missing British teenager Jay Slater have narrowed their efforts down to a group of small buildings close to where his phone last pinged in Tenerife. Officers from the Guardia Civil could be seen circling two structures at the bottom of a ravine in Rural de Teno Park yesterday.
Efforts appeared to be solely focused on this area after days of searches in the village of Masca and the surrounding landscape. Those conducting the searches on the seventh day of the hunt for Mr Slater could be seen looking into blue barrels outside one of the small buildings.
It comes after the teenager’s mother issued a direct plea to her missing son, saying: “We just need you home.” Debbie Duncan said she has “not slept” since the 19-year-old disappeared. She said she did not know whether the Spanish authorities turning down an offer of help from the UK was because they viewed it as “an insult”.
