Electrician who went missing in Tenerife for four days is found safe

A British electrician who had been missing in Tenerife for four days, has been found safe. 

Kris Finney, from Ramsbottom in Greater Manchester, jetted off to the Canary Island last Thursday to meet up with friends. 

The 31-year-old spoke to his mother to confirm he had landed but his phone was running out of battery.

He failed to meet up with friends in Tenerife as planned prompting calls to Spanish police and the Foreign Office. 

But in a positive update this afternoon, Kris' family confirmed he has been found safe.

Kris was found today and spoke to his family, including aunt Debbie Kenyon, who has been in contact with Manchester Evening News. 

It's understood the FCDO liaised with local police in Tenerife earlier today for enquiries to begin into Kris' disappearance.

The British Consulate reportedly contacted various hospitals on the island. 

It is understood that Kris' friend, who he was supposed to meet last Thursday, had been spoken to by police.

Debbie confirmed that a woman found Kris and lent him her phone to use after taking him to her shop, before he called his family. 

He spoke to friends at around 9pm last Thursday prior to his disappearance, and was known to be in Playa de las Americas. 

An FCDO spokesperson said earlier today: 'We are supporting the family of a British man reported missing in Spain and are in contact with the local authorities.'
