Levi ‘kidnapped by Brits’
FORMER X-Factor star Levi Davis was ‘kidnapped off the streets’ of Barcelona by a British gang, believes his family. His mother Julie claims a private investigator received an anonymous tip that her son (above) had got into a dispute with criminals two years ago while playing rugby for Ealing, in London, in 2020.
He was last seen outside the Old Irish Pub on October 29 - while a signal on his phone was last detected the next morning at Barcelona’s Sants Estacio train station.
“We desperately need to know more because this could change the whole nature of the investigation,” Julie told the Olive Press.
Cagey
She added the tipster was ‘very cagey’.
“I do know of some difficulties he had with some people who showed up to his flat in Ealing but don't know what the disagreement was about or how serious it was,” she added.
Police found his passport in Barcelona port in September - but no other clue has been uncovered since.
The Davis family is offering €11,500 to anyone who could find Levi.
wonderful sea animals no longer grace the waters off the coastal town since ‘rogue jet skis’ started to take over. “The quiet of the sea is totally dominated by these relatively new, but growing menaces,” Brown told the Olive Press “They’re often in groups, showing no respect for others enjoying the Mediterranean.”
The retired ecologist who has called Calpe home since 2019 said he’s seen multiple incidents of jet skiers ‘bullying and intimidating’ swimmers at Puerto Blanco beach.
“I’ve witnessed an elderly man in his canoe being repeatedly, virtually attacked by two jet skiers,”
Brown said.
“Just this summer a jet ski sped right through buoys and came right up onto the beach and had an argument with the lifeguard.
“As an avid swimmer myself, I've feared for my own life a few times, as I know others have done.
“They do things out there at sea you would never get away with on land.”
No legal issues!
LEGAL checks have now been completed on a deal to allow British expats whose licences have expired back on the road.
An embassy update confirmed that ‘checks have now been completed on both sides’.
