The hunt for a graduate missing in Spain has ended in tragedy after a body was found.
Straight-A student Nixon Smith, 23, from Stourbridge, West Midlands, was due to catch a flight home from Malaga on November 19 after being mugged two days earlier and losing all his personal possessions.
But when he failed to return home and missed his connecting flight out of Madrid, parents Diane Smith, 50, and Dave Smith, 52, immediately reported him missing after last speaking to him on November 17.
This evening West Mercia Police confirmed a body had been found and Mr Smith's next of kin had been informed.

It comes after the family's desperate appeal to find Mr Smith, whom they described as 'very vulnerable'.
Nixon Smith had not been heard of since November 19 when he caught a flight from Malaga to the Spanish capital.
The 23-year-old - described as a free spirit by his family - failed to catch a planned connecting flight back to Birmingham hours later.
He was reported to have been robbed during his holiday in the country and is understood to have been issued with an emergency passport at the British Consulate in Malaga.
Loved-ones hoped someone spotted Mr Smith on the streets after they issued missing posters.
'As far as we know, he has no reason to run away or go into hiding and has no previous history of living on the streets,' Nixon's friend Hollie Jones told The Local.
'He was previously in Malaga on holiday before he flew into Madrid on 19 November and went missing. He doesn't speak Spanish,' she added.
He was due to fly home to Birmingham after a stopover in Madrid.

flight from Malaga to Madrid but did not take the connecting flight to Birmingham ten hours later.
His family called him a free spirit but also described him as 'very vulnerable', the Local reported, insisting it was unlikely for him to be out of contact for so long.
His brother, Jake, made an appeal on his Facebook page, asking anyone who had information to help his family locate Nixon.
'I’m writing this because it's my birthday today & as much of a free spirit my brother is he loves his family. I’ve had no contact, hence the need for this status,' he wrote.
The appeal said: 'We believe he is still in Madrid. Uncharacteristic of him not to have made contact. Nixon may be distressed, confused and not instantly recognisable.
'Please get in touch if you have any information that may help or have any possible sightings, we just want to know he is safe and ok.'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
