Search for missing boy, 8, in rural Níjar

A SEARCH party has resumed for an eight-year-old boy who went missing on Tuesday afternoon from the tied hamlet of Las Hortichuelas in Níjar (Almería province), after being forced to stop for the night.
Gabriel Cruz Ramírez had gone out at around 15.30 to play with friends at a neighbour's house, barely 100 metres from where his grandmother lives in the Cortijo La Molina area right in the heart of the Cabo de Gata-Níjar nature reserve.
Although the Guardia Civil believes the little boy may have 'got lost', they 'find it strange' that 'nobody has heard or seen anything'.
The child was wearing black Adidas tracksuit bottoms and a red jacket when he was last seen.
Missing persons charity SOS Desaparecidos is offering a €10,000 reward for any information leading to Gabriel's being found.
