Tourist, 81, reported missing in Granada appears out of the blue at home in USA
AN 81-YEAR-OLD man who went missing at Granada's Alhambra Palace whilst on holiday with his wife was found five days later in his California home, according to National Police.
The specialist homicide unit had been combing the area, fearing the worst, when the North American tourist disappeared without trace and his distraught wife reported him missing.
He was last seen on Wednesday, June 4 at 17.00hrs when he and his wife were part of an organised tour group.
And he was found yesterday (Monday) at his home on the west coast of the USA having apparently just turned up.
Sources claim he took a taxi to Barcelona, over eight hours north, to visit the city and from there to Amsterdam, a trip of around four days by road.
He then flew home to the States from the Dutch capital, but had not told anyone of his plans until he was found in his house.
The missing man's wife had been waiting in Granada for further news, but has now returned to California.
