Alleged Stowaway Plunges To Their Death



by Carrigan Davis


On Sunday the 9, officials say that a stowaway hidden in a plane’s landing gear, fell to their death as the aeroplane prepped for landing in Heathrow. Residents of the area report of body parts and pools of blood strewn across the area.


Annie Williams, 47, a resident of the area said: “ I heard a monstrous bang. I thought someone had been hit by a car. there were two fellows going to church and they said there’s a dead body in the street.”
Richard Taylor, from Civil Aviation Authority, said: “The chances of survival for a stowaway are very slim, particularly in the recess of the landing gear if someone tried to stowaway there.”
Taylor also mentioned that the man may have already been dead due to being crushed by the landing gear when it retracted. 
There have been a very few number of reports on stowaways and most of the time they are already found dead.
A police spokesman said: “The death is currently being treated as unexplained. A post mortem examination will be held in due course.”
She also added that the man being a stowaway was “one line of inquiry.”
