Man, 31, missing in Tenerife after flying out to meet friend

A 31-year-old man is missing in Tenerife after flying to the island for a holiday with a friend. Kris Finney has not been heard from since Thursday when he called his mum to say he had arrived, and said his phone was almost out of charge.

His Aunt Debbie says friends and family have been unable to reach him since then with his phone now switched off. The electrician from Ramsbottom in Greater Manchester had planned to meet up with a friend on the island, but never made contact. Kris is a white man, about 5ft 7ins tall, with short dark hair.

Aunt Debbie Kenyon said Kris spoke to his friends at around 9pm last Thursday and was last known to be at the Playa de las Americas resort on the island, near the McDonald's. It's believed he was staying at Casa Natalia, in the Armeñime area.

Photos of Kris and details of his last known location have been posted on the Missing Persons Tenerife Facebook group, reports the Manchester Evening News.

Debbie told the MEN: "He was going for a week away and meeting up with his friend. He flew out on Thursday morning last week. He arrived on Thursday afternoon. His mum got a text at 4pm from him, and that was the last we heard from him. According to some of his friends, they were speaking to him around 9pm that night.

"Since then, nobody has heard anything from him. He was supposed to meet up with his friend who is staying in a different hotel and never showed. We have phoned and sent texts that haven't delivered. It was last night that we got the call from one of his friends saying nobody had heard from him for days. We've been trying to get hold of him and haven't been able to - it's not like Kris.

"He may sometimes not contact you for 12 to 18 hours but then he always reaches out. There was nothing we could do at that time of night.

"Today we have found out the details about where he was staying and have been contacting police in Tenerife and also our local police. The Foreign Office have all the details. They have already rang his friend as part of enquiries and spoken to him and contacted his mum again."

Manchester Evening News has contacted The Foreign Office and Civil Guard for further information.
