Jay Slater's dad explains who's keys he found in search after son's tragic disappearance

The father of Jay Slater has shed some light on the desperate search he and his family undertook following the tragic disappearance of his son.

Apprentice bricklayer Jay was on holiday in Tenerife when he went missing on June 17. The 19-year-old, from Oswaldtwistle, had been attending a three-day music festival with friends.

Tragically, the youngster's remains were finally discovered on July 15 near the village of Masca, just metres from his last known location, reports the Mirror.

The preliminary autopsy pointed to his cause of death being on account of a 'fall or plunge from height', with the Civil Guard confirming that Jay's catastrophic injuries included several broken bones. But despite the findings giving his loved ones some comfort, it still remains unknown why Jay ventured out alone.
