A missing British expat who vanished from the Costa del Sol five days ago has been located.

Steve Ordish (pictured above), 63, had last been seen in Benalmadena on Monday afternoon.

The retiree has been living in Benalmadena for over 20 years, close friend Lynsey Brown said.

She told the Spanish Eye that he was found at Xanit Hospital on Saturday.

She added that she knew no further details.

Steve has been in and out of hospital with kidney problems and has bad eye sight, his friends previously told this paper, describing him as ‘vulnerable.’

The original appeal on social media read: ‘Missing in Benalmadena area – last seen four days ago.

‘If anyone has seen or knows him, he’s called Steve, frequents local bars around the Marina.

‘Local hospitals checked and police have been contacted.’
