A Connecticut man was reported missing while vacationing in the British Virgin Islands, police said.

Benjamin Wu, 29, of Middletown was last seen Saturday walking along Long Bay Beach in Tortola, police said.

There was no indication of foul play, said Jim Sandler, a Hartford lawyer and friend.

Authorities said on Monday night that they might have a lead in the case of a missing man.

Benjamin Wu, 29, vanished nine days ago in the British Virgin Islands.

Police on the island of Tortola said they are searching for a man who found an iPod belonging to Wu.

However, since the last sighting of Wu places him on the rocks, Murray said that any search and rescue would have been irrelevant at this time because he wouldn’t have survived three days in the water.

Wu’s cousin David said that Wu did not know how to swim.

It is presumed that Wu had fallen while climbing on some rocks overlooking a cove near Long Bay beach.

The only sign of him since then has been his iPod, which washed up on the beach late last week.

Inspector Murray said that the most likely scenario was death by drowning, and ruled out any foul play.
