It's March 21st, here's your Birmingham News in two minutes. A 20-year-old university of Alabama student named James, Jimmy, Gracie, has died while visiting friends in Barcelona. His body was recovered from the water on Thursday after authorities conducted a two-day search in the Olympic Village area. Gracie had been out with a friend at the Shoko Nightclub and was last seen around 3 a.m. on Tuesday. The friend headed back to their rented Airbnb alone, leaving Gracie behind at the club. Initial reports raised concerns about possible foul play, but that changed quickly with new evidence. Surveillance video captured Gracie, walking by himself, toward a dock, before he accidentally fell into the water. Officials now say it was a tragic mishap, with no one else involved. Gracie's family shared heartfelt memories of his courageous spirit, and they're thankful for the widespread support during this tough time. Our thoughts go out to them as they remember his vibrant life.
