An American tourist disappears on the Greek island, a few days after the British presenter was found dead

Greek officials are searching for an American tourist who went missing after hiking alone on the island of Amorgos.

Authorities said Albert Calibet went missing on Tuesday when his friends reported he had not returned from the mountain.

Several teams have taken part in the search, including volunteers, the BBC reported.

His disappearance came days after British presenter Michael Mosley went missing on the Greek island of Symi and his body was found four days later.

Teams are searching on land and at sea for Calibet.

Authorities have said that the mountain through which Calibet went is not difficult, but that he may have changed his route by choosing a more difficult route.
