A new search is under way in Tenerife for missing British teenager Jay Slater following calls from Spanish police for volunteer help.
On Friday the Guardia Civil asked voluntary organisations and members of the public with expertise in difficult conditions to come to northern Tenerife.
Dozens of experienced local firefighters, police and mountain rangers are leading the search.
Authorities had hoped the operation would be a “massive search” but less than 12 members of the public had arrived at the meeting point before it began.
The 19-year-old has not been heard from since the morning of 17 June, after he told a friend he was lost in the mountains and had 1% battery on his phone.

same as every friday saturday night in any city youths get so drunk they cant stand do stupid things and police ambulance resources wasted dealing with them ok if when they sober up they should get the bill night in police drunk tank should be at least £200 quid fine
112,000 uk children go missing every year IN BRITAIN.
ALL MPs , ALL the house of lords and ALL the royal family should be questioned about UK missing children… LIVE ON LIE DETECTORS .
I hope this young man’s family get the answers they need. No amount of money will ever compensate for a missing child. Each human deserves kindness and compassion irrespective of how you judge their past –
the guys a thug
Does not give a profile of this kid everthing sounds dodgy look at the mother????
Two quite well known Psychic,s are saying Jay is being kept in an Outhouse on a dusty poor looking Farm , by two older man and woman, he is injured on. One of his legs so is unable to escape his dark Prison, they are giving him a few sips of water but hardly any food, he is terrified of this Couple as, they want a huge Reward for him, as, they have Finacial worries, the woman especially, is as hard as nails, as, she was to her own children grown up now. Only two bits of light ,are, that one of the children Grown up now, but still fearful of his Parents know that these two Monsters have him lovked up, he has a kind heart ,but fear of being killed by them is delaying him telling the Police, but, there is anither Gentleman who thinks they have Jay, but is scared of something,maybe an abused guard dog, so he cannot confirm what be suspects. I hope the Police can find this this very Run down Dirty Dusty old Farmhouse, before Jay passes away , maybe of Sepsis from a Cacti or knife wound on his leg. He, so the Cards read, say, that he was running away from a couple of very nasty men, and, he took the wrong turning ,trying to outthink them , not the way back to his Hotel, this was drug related, and, he got involved in people he was scared of. The Couple who have him now , knew whi he was and saw a way of getting out if serious money troubles etc etc. Maybe the Police have been made aware of all this, that is why they are out today, looking further away.
If these two Psychics are correct, the Police and Mountain Crews ,MUST FIND HIM today , because tomorrow could be too late!.
Whether you are a Christian or Non Believer it is still worth a try saying in your minds, Please let Jay Slater be found, before it is too late for him. All things said in a Positive heart felt way, can , maybe help this terrified very sick young man .😢.😊😮😢😊.
He’s dead . Election Distraction
people need to stop sending money they are not using it to help find Jay 🧐 the truth will come out we all just have to watch and wait .
Hope Jay is found safe and well and thank you to all the Spanish Police Fire fighters Dogs everyone helping to try and find Jay xx UK
What’s the point wast of time and money
It’s extremely concerning that the search has been called off. I can’t imagine what Jay’s family are going through. I promise to never go on holiday to Spain or the Canary Islands ever again and will ensure my children never do either. I will not contribute my hard earned cash to their economy. I imagine that Tenerife relies heavily on tourism, therefore the safety of tourists and displaying their concern for them should be paramount as the world is watching this tragedy unfold. The actions, refusal of Uk police help and lack of actions speaks volumes to me.
My son needs a heart
Unlucky, he is gone. Get over it. Who cares, you should be looking for the other kids that do t act gangster but go missing..maddie mccann has a better chance of coming gome 😂. Foolish people.
Nick Garnett is wrong. The search is NOT going on. After 2 weeks they will find nobody there.
The investigation will go on, that's something different.
NEW SEARCH AND NOW ITS CALLED OFF ! HE CAN COME OUT OF HIDING NOW ESPECIALLY IF 🏴 GO OUT THE EURI'S ! THUS IS SO SHADY IM TELLING YA 👊🏴
A lot of “1 white guy goes missing more important than hundreds of thousands being murdered”
BBC is awful. What a waste of time and funding.
Why have the Spanish polce not searched the sea for jay slater to give up someone like that is disgusting
Does the Britain care about other teenagers too, like the 14,000 children in Palestine?
Or, are some lives more valuable than other, for the British Empire?
Lets be straight!
The only reason this Druggie, Thug Jay is getting all the attention despite all the hundreds and thousands of actual innocent children and people is probably because his case isn't linked to sex trafficking!!!
Its that obvious 😏
Lets call out the facts hey!
Jay is a well-known drug dealer and an violent gang thug!
Who have come into some money on their go fund me page. That was set out for Jay?
Yet not one penny has event been spent on anything that could be of help!
The mother hasn't even put out pictures of Jay in the last seen Location!
Which is very strange 🤔
So I'm just going to have a stab in the wind hire and say "NOBODY GIVES A FUCK!!!"
Waste of time and money.
I used to have a mate called Jay but we called him ‘J’ for short ..😂
Searching for a conman 😂
