Spanish police conducting the search for missing teenager Jay Slater are investigating his ‘background’ to determine whether it is relevant to his disappearance.
Jay, from Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire, travelled to the Canary Islands for a weekend music festival with two friends when he disappeared late on the night of June 16.Extensive searches have been underway since he disappeared last week, but now detectives on the holiday island are evaluating the teenager’s background.It comes after the Spanish press revealed that the 19-year-old has a criminal history, as he was previously involved in a machete attack that left a teenager fighting for his life.
We have a different way of doing things and that's not to say it's better or worse, just different." A Civil Guard spokeswoman said on Monday morning: “The same Civil Guard units that have been searching for him since last Monday, including the mountain rescue experts and officers with sniffer dogs, are out on the ground, along with a police helicopter in the air.“Firefighters and Civil Protection workers with drones are also involved. No hypothesis is being ruled out.
