Missing Jay Slater search update as new photos released from Tenerife

A desperate search for a missing British teenager in Tenerife has entered its fourth day today - with new pictures released of emergency crews scouring the mountains.

Jay Slater was reported missing by his friends on the Spanish island on Monday morning (June 17). The 19-year-old, from Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire, disappeared after going to stay in an area on the north of the island with people he had met on a night out following the NRG music festival.

His friend Lucy last heard from him at around 8am, when he told her needed a drink of water and that he was trying to walk back to their accomodation after missing a bus - a journey expected to take around 11 hours on foot. Since then, a huge search has been ongoing where his phone's location was last tracked.
