The 19-year-old apprentice bricklayer, from Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire, vanished on the morning of June 17 on the island of Tenerife, prompting a huge search to try and find him. Spanish police called off the official search after 13 days, but today announced they had discovered a body. While a formal identification has not yet taken place, officers say that 'everything is pointing to it being' Jay. Police said in a statement that he may have died after 'suffering an accident or fall in the inaccessible area where he was found', but that an autopsy would provide further details.
