A 19-year-old British teenager, Jay Slater, has gone missing in Tenerife after telling a friend that he “didn’t know where he was” and needed water. Jay was last seen “in the middle of mountains with nothing around” as he attempted to walk back to his holiday apartment. The incident occurred during his first holiday abroad without his parents, where he had travelled to attend the NRG Tenerife Weekender music festival.

According to his friend Lucy, Jay failed to return home after staying with people he had met on the holiday. He had gone out for a night with friends and ended up at an unfamiliar location. His phone battery was critically low, and he desperately needed water. The last location of Jay’s phone, before it died, was registered at a hiking trail in the middle of the mountains near the village of Masca.
