Businessman Killed In Spanish Home

Millionaire businessman Andrew Bush has been shot dead at his home in Estepona, on Spain's Costa del Sol.

Police are understood to be hunting for his ex-girlfriend Mayka Kukucova, who is the main suspect of the murder.

The 48-year-old from Bristol was found at about 3am on Saturday in a pool of blood with two gunshot wounds to his head.

Police and firefighters discovered the body after forcing their way into the beachside villa.

The pair are thought to have been ambushed by Ms Kukucova who is thought to have been inside the house waiting for the businessman and his British girlfriend to come home.

The suspected shooter is still on the run after escaping in the victim's Hummer vehicle.
