Concerns have been raised online for a Leitrim man, Barry Kelly, who has gone missing in Spain over the weekend
Leitrim man Barry Kelly was reported missing by his sister, Colette Kelly, in a post shared yesterday in a Spanish expat group on Facebook.
“My brother is missing, last seen in Alicante Airport. He has no charge in his phone and very little, if any, money. We are trying to get him home, but cannot contact him,” the post read.
The family has not had any contact with Barry since Saturday, prior to nationwide blackouts that affected the country.
“He was wearing a denim jacket, white t-shirt, and green combat trousers… If anybody sees him, please let us know. He may be in a vulnerable place.”
A spokesperson for the Department of Foreign Affairs said they are “aware of reports and stand ready to provide consular assistance.”
