Madeliene McCann Possible sighting in Spain in My Area Of the Costa Blanca
Possible Madeleine McCanne sighting in Spain
A Neighbourhood Watch coordinator alerted police last week to a possible sighting of the missing British girl, Madeleine McCann. According to the coordinator, she saw a little girl who fitted Madeleine’s description with a couple whom she believed may have been Scandinavian at a Local bus stop.
The coordinator’s suspicions were aroused because the male was holding the little blonde girl close to his chest, as though trying to shield her face from being seen.
The girl cried “I want to go home” on several occasions and the coordinator was concerned that neither the male nor female did or said anything to reassure the little girl.
The coordinator said to the girl, “You don’t want to go home – it’s raining there”, to which the male replied, “yes, it is raining in Scotland”. The coordinator detected a hint of Scandinavian in the man’s accent. But what concerned her more was that when the little girl attempted to turn around to respond, the man stopped her by pushing her head into his chest.
The bus arrived and the coordinator, who was getting more concerned at this point, fully expected the couple to get on the bus, but they did not and she didn’t see them again. She could not get the incident out of her head and on advice from the Neighbourhood Watch president, phoned 112 to report what she had seen. She was told to get to Guardia Civil POLICE immediately to make a formal denuncia. It would appear by their response that the Guardia Civil took the case very seriously.
I spoke to Trevor who is treasurer with Neighbourhood Watch, and he said: “This lady is convinced that the little girl she saw was Madeleine McCann. The whole incident has worried and frightened her. She is a fantastic coordinator for Neighbourhood Watch and has been right on every other occasion when she has reported an incident. We trust her judgement and therefore have no choice but to take her claim seriously.”
The male was Scandinavian in appearance, with blonde hair. He was approximately 6ft tall, and was well dressed and clean-shaven. The female was small, around 5.4ft, with black short hair. The little girl was about the size of a three or four year old with shoulder length blonde hair and the same build as Madeleine. The coordinator did not get to see the little girls face because it was hidden by the male.
Madeleine McCann has now been missing for more than 100 days since her abduction in Portugal.
This possible sighting is one of many reported across Europe, including one in Belgium earlier in August where a lady was convinced she had seen Madeleine with a couple in a bar. This witness told police that the woman allegedly with Madeleine spoke English, and that the man was Dutch.
Neighbourhood Watch advises anyone who thinks they may have seen Madeleine McCann to call 112 immediately.
