mystery Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) DAILYMAIL: Spanish footballer Alvaro Prieto, 18, is found dead after body was discovered between two train carriages - four days after he was reported missing A promising young footballer who went missing four days ago has been found dead near the Spanish train station where he was last seen.B 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.

Buffy Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 I read he didn’t have a ticket to board the train and his phone battery died. He didn’t know how to ask anyone for help, so he hitched a ride by wedging himself between the two trains… I’m guessing he got crushed.

Current reports seem to indicate that he got electrocuted, the train he was found in wasn't moving for days. 2

I am just now seeing that too. I saw a video of the live report with his legs sticking out. His arm looked completely blackened. I was wondering why his arm and hand were black. Probably from the electricity….

HEAVYONIT Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 This whole story is super weird to me. Why did he get on top of the train in the first place?

MingYouToo Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 all things considered i am temporarily relieved the narrative is that he wasn't murdered. so much death and misery right now happening at the hands of other human beings. may he rest in peace

DougAF Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 The way I read the posts above and have been told he jumped from a bridge, got electrocuted, and then crushed between two trains
Illuminati Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 The extra details about his death sound horrible but somehow knowing that he died fast from electrocution sounds less bad than being crushed alive

People don’t usually wind up dead when kept from boarding their train. It says he was on his way home after a night out. I wonder if he was still drunk or otherwise intoxicated because those were some CHOICES that he made.

I mean sure but his friend boarded the train normally at the same time and it should have been a logical conclusion that he does have a ticket. There would have been nothing wrong with letting a kid board a train instead of chasing him out alone. Especially if he seemed under the influence.

He didn’t have a ticket, he missed his train, and anyone would have been told to leave the train without a ticket, I don’t think the staff is to blame for the poor decisions he made after that 1 1
