Jay Slater’s death was accidental after falling from a height, a coroner has concluded.

The 19-year-old from Lancashire, UK, went missing in Tenerife on 17 June 2024.

A huge search was launched, and his body was found in a ravine near the village of Masca on 15 July.

He had told his friends he was "in the middle of the mountains" and in need of a drink, as he attempted a 14-hour walk home the morning after taking drugs and alcohol on a night out, Preston Coroner’s Court was told on Thursday.
