British millionaire Andrew Bush was shot twice in the head as he arrived at the beach-side holiday home with his new British girlfriend. Now, police are looking for a blonde Eastern European in her twenties who is believed to be his ex-lover. 

 

Mr Bristol, who was also a gold dealer, was shot as he and his British girlfriend returned to the villa on the Costa del Sol from a holiday together. The killer is said to have fled in a hummer truck. 

 

It is believed that the police are considering his former partner from Slovakia was at the property when the incident happened. 

 

A source was quoted by Sky News: "It is being treated as murder and police are hunting the dead man's ex on suspicion of committing this crime.

 

"[The police] are probing the possibility she may have let herself into the property while the occupant was away and waited for several days for him to return."

 

Mr Bush’s unnamed British girlfriend has told investigators that his ex-lover opened the door at around 2am on Saturday. She then called the police after she was not allowed to enter the house. She said she saw a woman sped off using Mr Bush’s Hummer. When the police came and entered the house, they saw the victim lying in a pool of blood next to a gun.
