How to fit a spatial hurdle model with the INLA package ?

Dear all,

I am looking for an example (dataset and code) of fitting a spatial 
hurdle model (zero-inflated model with a single source of zeros) using 
the INLA package for R. With this approach, two models are jointly fitted:

(1) the probability to observe at least one event (the single source of 
zeros)

(2) the (strictly > 0) count of events

The spatial correlation might be represented by a conditional 
auto-regressive model.

I am aware of the R-!NLA documentation available at http://www.r-inla.org/

All the best

Renaud
