Firefighters withdraw from the search for the missing teenager in Roses

The Firefighters also reported this afternoon that they have withdrawn from the search for the 16-year-old boy who disappeared on Wednesday while riding a jet ski with other people in the bay of Roses. After searching the area near Begur, the body's units have found no trace of the boy. The Mossos, for their part, maintain a maritime unit in the area working in coordination with Maritime Rescue and the Civil Guard to try to find the young man who has been missing for more than three days now.

Meanwhile, the Civil Guard continues to investigate the facts, taking statements from witnesses and the company that owns the jet skis, which were sealed this Friday. The agents verified that the vessel carrying the young man, which appeared the next day on the beach of Pals, had damage. The Firefighters are working with the hypothesis that the boy lost his life jacket at some point and fell into the sea.
