A man named Steven Michael B went missing from the peaceful village of Las Salas, nestled in the northern region of Spain, on July 11. Despite the efforts of emergency teams and authorities, he remained unaccounted for, causing great concern for his loved ones and the community. However, hope turned to tragedy when a body was discovered in the village's church bell tower, believed to be that of the missing British man.
The 48-year-old had been missing for over a week, following a heated argument with his wife. The village Mayor, Manuel Valbuena, shared that all evidence pointed towards this being the missing Brit. Though the body has yet to be officially identified, it is suspected to be Steven's. In a sad turn of events, it is expected that his death will not be treated as a crime, with no other suspects involved.
The search for Steven began on a Sunday, with emergency teams scouring the area in hopes of finding him. It was reported that he had left his wife in a garage after their argument, and also abandoned his car, leaving behind personal belongings. Mountain rescue teams were brought in to aid in the search, along with experts from the Civil Guard's Greim unit, who specialize in these types of cases. They combed the banks of the Esla River, a tributary of the Duero River, as well as the surrounding mountain areas.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time a British individual has gone missing in the mountains of Spain. Just last month, a 70-year-old man from London, who remains unnamed, was reported missing in the Pyrenees, a mountain range that straddles both France and Spain. The search and rescue operation was initiated after Interpol's UK office, based in Manchester, provided the coordinates of an electronic bracelet the man was wearing. Thankfully, he was found by a search and rescue team and taken to a nearby mountain refuge.
