THE family of Grant Barr have shared more photos of the missing US banker in the hopes that someone will recognise him.


The 36-year-old disappeared from Estepona on the Costa del Sol on January 28, during a trip to see relatives and friends.
The financier has worked for some of the world’s biggest insitutions in the Big Apple, including Citi bank.
The family previously told the Olive Press that Grant’s passport, trousers and other belongings were later found near a beach in the resort.
His brother James Barr confirmed to the Olive Press this week that he and other family members are now in the area after flying in from the States.
He said: “We are here now and are getting a tremendous amount of support from both locals and the expat communities.
“Most of the people we speak to are aware of Grant’s dissapearnce, and several are actively assisting us in the search.”
James previously said: “Grant’s pants, passport and boating licence were found in a jetty by the beach in Estepona.”

His dad has confirmed he is a US Citizen. I know from previous articles he does have family in this area of Spain. I think the post about him possibly being in other European countries was made before his belongings including his passport were found.

Is it possible he tried to go for a swim and got in trouble in the water? I feel so bad for his family and other loved ones :(

MOO.

This seems much likelier than him having gone to another country, IMO.

His father previously said that his son had planned to go sailing but changed his mind.

He continued: “We spoke a few times, he was going through a difficult time emotionally… he then spoke to his brother and that was it…”

That breakup has caused him an emotional or psychological downturn that I think has distorted his reality," laments the man, who has contacted this newspaper from the United States. The last time he spoke to his son, he recognises that he was quite scared, since he noticed him distressed and with the feeling that he was being chased.

"My son is extremely intelligent, but I think the disappearance is the result of thinking that he has put his family in danger," laments his father, totally devastated by the situation.

His father posted on FB 4/7/25 that his remains were found and through DNA confirmed it was him. No MSM that I can find to confirm. IMO
