A body was found in the search for missing teenager Jay Slater yesterday, almost one month after he vanished on the Spanish island of Tenerife.

The 19-year-old apprentice bricklayer, from Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire, was last seen on the morning of June 17. 

Although Spanish police are awaiting full identification, they say that ‘everything is pointing to it being’ Jay, who they said could have ‘suffered an accident or fall in the inaccessible area where he was found’.
