It’s understood Jake,who is a doctor,had been visiting his brother,a lacrosse player living in the US. The pair were travelling with another friend from the US.
According to local media reports,the trio was last spotted at the weekend in the Esenada region.
A Special Operations Group have now joined local authorities in their search for the missing men.
One local journalist claimed a woman had been arrested after being found in possession of one of the men’s phones and methamphetamine. He claimed the woman was found after authorities tracked one of the missing men’s mobile phones.
In a post on social media,the missing brothers’ mother Debra Robinson appealed for help.
“They are travelling with another friend,an American citizen,” she said.
