Underwater search for missing rugby player in Barcelona after leaving Ibiza

The investigators located the last movements of the missing person in an area close to the port and received information that pointed to the possibility that a person had fallen into the water on the night of the events in a place close to where Davis was. Davis, 24, disappeared on 29 October in Barcelona after arriving by ferry from Ibiza and was last seen in an Irish pub on the Rambla.

Weeks later his passport was found in the port of Barcelona and neither his mobile phone or his bank cards have been used since. Although the hypothesis of a criminal disappearance was initially considered, this line of investigation was ruled out.

Therefore, with this new device they are looking for "any evidence that could confirm the hypothesis of a possible accidental death", after they had already carried out an exhaustive search in which they did not find any body, but they did not rule out that they had found objects or clothes of the missing person. The search, which began this morning, is being carried out by the Maritime Police and the Aquatic Unit, and the investigation, which is being conducted by Barcelona Magistrate's Court 7, is still open.
