    Victoria man reported missing in Spain found dead

    • Victoria man reported missing in Spain found dead

    VICTORIA - A Victoria man who disappeared in Spain in July has been found dead in that country.

    A statement from Victoria police says 67-year-old Scott Graham was last seen in Madrid.

    The statement says his body has been located but it doesn't say where or when.

    A high-risk missing person alert was issued in both Spanish and English on Aug. 8, about three weeks after Graham was reported missing.

    He was suffering from a medical condition that had the potential to become life-threatening without medication and the alert in August said Graham's family was "deeply concerned" about his disappearance. 

    Victoria police say their counterparts in Spain are continuing to investigate Graham's death, but the circumstances are not believed to be suspicious.
