An American former Marine, Taylor, had a close call after attending an end-of-year festival in Los Planes on the East Cape. Things took a turn for the worse when Taylor, after the festivities, found himself lost in the surrounding area—a worrying scenario for any reveler.
Concern grew quickly among friends and neighbors who reported his sudden disappearance to the local authorities. However, they were met with a frustrating protocol: a 72-hour wait before a formal search could commence. Unwilling to wait while their friend was potentially in peril, the community rallied together to take action.
