A promising young footballer who went missing four days ago has been found dead near the Spanish train station where he was last seen.  Spanish third-tier side Cordoba FC confirmed the body found late on Monday was that of 18-year-old Alvaro Prieto.

The teenager vanished on Thursday morning after being asked to leave a train he was trying to catch so he could return to his home city of Cordoba. The engineering student, leading goal-scorer this season for Cordoba FC's youth team, had been out partying with friends in Seville and missed the 7.20am train he was due to return home on and had already paid for. Security guards asked him to leave the area around 9.30am on Thursday catching him trying to cross the tracks and get on another train he didn't have a ticket for.

He was thought to have abandoned Santa Justa Station - without cash and with no battery on his mobile phone to show he had bought the earlier ticket and he was no longer able to use to pay for a new one. His anguished mum Julia Lopez said in a radio interview over the weekend she feared the teenager had been run over or abducted after trying to hitch-hike home.

The two carriages on the train his body was wedged between in the ugly scenes filmed by Spanish state broadcaster TVE are believed to have been brought out of sidings this morning shortly before his body was spotted. A police investigation into the tragedy is now underway.

A Spanish TV crew doing a live report on the missing man filmed the horror moment part of his body, with the white trainers and beige trousers he was wearing when he vanished, could be seen trapped between two carriages on a moving train coming into Seville's main railway station. Spanish state broadcaster TVE subsequently made a grovelling apology for screening the images instead of interrupting the live signal after it emerged it was Alvaro's body.

This has been a real tragedy here in Spain. Everyone was worried about this kid.
People now wonder what really happened because the place where the body was found was very hard to access.

I've seen people on atrl say that he jumped from an overpass (I think?) On top of one of the trains, lost balance, grabbed a hold of one of the wires and got electrocuted and fell

Spoiler

And apparently the news station(s) had broadcasted his body and the blackened hand/arm from the electrocion

 

It's so fucking devastating just thinking about it.

Yes, apparently they found video footage from a gas station where they could see how he got on top of the train and got electrocuted and fell on the space between the wagons (still on top of the train). This would explain why no one saw the body from thursday to sunday. Then, once the train started moving on monday, that space between wagons opened up and the body fell and that's why his legs were popping out of that area, which is what the news station captured.

It's very sad because everyone wonders why he didn't try to contact his parents to help him. The thing is that since he missed his train, he didn't want to bother them because of his irresponsability and tried to sort out the problem on his own, which led to the events that occured.

this part is fucked up, probably on the parent's part cos what the fuck?
