Jay Slater's mum Debbie and friend Lucy have spoke of their fears after the teen vanished on the holiday island.
The mum and close pal of missing British teen Jay Slater have shared their fearful concerns about his 'weird' disappearance in Tenerife. The 19-year-old apprentice bricklayer, from Lancashire, was enjoying a festival alongside friends on Sunday, June 16 when he decided to stay out with another pal he had met on holiday.
Since Monday, sniffer dogs and mountain rescue experts have been scouring the area. His mum, Debbie Duncan, who flew into the Canary Island on Tuesday morning, has also now revealed her worst fear for what may have befallen her son. "It’s secluded but the spot where he last made phone contact with me is near a main road and he would have had the wherewithal to flag someone down, to wave someone down and ask for help. There’s something weird going on. It is suspicious. In two days you’re telling me someone’s not seen him. There’s a restaurant 10 minutes away that he would have seen or walked past.
"He's ended up out in the middle of nowhere. Jay was obviously thinking he would be able to get home from there. But then in the morning he's set off walking, using his Maps on his phone and ended up in the middle of mountains with nothing around. Jay's last known location registered near a hiking trail, several hundred feet above the small village of Masca. His pal Lucy says Jay complained of being thirsty and that he was lost.
