THE inquest into the death of Jay Slater, who went missing in Tenerife, heard two friends with him before his disappearance “cannot be located”.

The proceedings took place into the 19-year-old's death on Wednesday at Preston Coroner's Court, overseen by senior coroner Dr James Adeley.

As the hearing began, Dr Adeley informed the court neither Lucy Law nor Brad Hargreaves, who had been with the Oswaldtwistle bricklayer in Tenerife and attended the NRG music festival on the Spanish island last June, could be found prior to the inquest.
