Alex Batty was a British child who went missing in 2017, before reappearing in 2023. Batty went missing after going on a holiday trip to Spain with his mother and grandfather. During the 6 years that he was missing, Batty was "in an odyssey through Morocco, Spain, and Southwest France living an off-the-grid life". He left when his mother told him that she wanted to move again to Finland. Batty told police that after he left his mother, he headed for Toulouse and was later found by a delivery driver.
