Lancashire teen Jay flew out to the holiday island with two friends for the NRG festival.

He went to the closing night Sunday with his pals, but left with two men he met that evening.

The next morning he called friend Lucy Law to tell her his phone was about to die and he was stranded in the middle of nowhere.

Jay has not been heard from or seen since, with search crews desperately hunting around the clock for the apprentice bricklayer.

Now footage, which is being shared widely on social media, has emerged from the rave showing Jay wandering through a sea of clubbers – all in their teens or 20s.

Andy Watson, the long-term partner of Jay’s mum, confirmed to The Sun that it is the missing teen in the clip.

Jay’s best friend Lucy – the last person he spoke to on the phone – has now implored British cops to get involved in the search as precious hours tick by.

She told the Mirror: “We need British police here. I just want to find my mate. He’s been missing three days. It’s not looking good now.

“We feel as though it’s down to us to find him and that we’re doing more than the police.”

Lucy said the two men Jay left the club with Sunday night have since left the country.

“They need to be questioned by British police,” she said.


It comes as…


At around 7.30am on Monday – an hour before he phoned Lucy – Jay posted a Snapchat of a hand holding a cigarette.

A Snapchat video posted the night before showed him laughing with mates.

Meanwhile Jay’s desperate mum broke down in tears as she pleaded with anyone holding her son to “let him go”.

Debbie Duncan – who has flown out to the island – is worried her son has been taken against his will.

She told the Mail: “If anyone does have him, just let him go, he’s not a bad person, maybe he’s got in with some strangers who’ve befriended him.

“I’m not stupid, I’ve been to Tenerife before, I’ve worked abroad myself and I gave him warnings, I just think if anyone has got him let him go, he’s not a bad person.”

Debbie said yesterday Jay was on his first holiday abroad with friends – and wasn’t a big drinker back home.

Debbie told the BBC: “I’ve not slept at all, it’s like it’s not real.

“It was his first holiday abroad with his friends and I was encouraging him to go, I said, ‘You will have a great time’.

“He’s not really a drinker is Jay but he had been drinking shorts and spirits that night.

“Everyone loves being in his company, and he was having a laugh with these guys.

“He wouldn’t have seen the danger, he didn’t have his wits about him, he just wanted to go and have fun.”

Around 15 family and friends have flown out to help – with cops, firefighters, sniffer dogs, drones and helicopters all scouring the hills where he was last seen.

Police briefly moved their search to the other side island on Wednesday after a reported sighting came in.

Mountain rescue crews left the hills where Jay vanished and started scouring the south of the island.

But the huge search operation shifted back near the village of Masca in northwestern Tenerife after the report turned out to be false.
