GRENOBLE, France (AFP) - A 26-year-old Briton was found frozen to death in a stream in the south-eastern French ski resort of La Plagne, local officials said Friday, March 22.

Mr Louis Robertson from Glasgow went missing on Wednesday night. His body was found early on Friday, a statement said, adding it was an "unfortunate accident".

He appeared to have tried to take a shortcut while bar-hopping, it said.
