Human body parts fell from the sky in the city of Jeddah Sunday, with police saying they could be the remains of a person trapped in an airplane’s wheel bay.
“Police received a telephone call at 2:30 am from a witness reporting the fall of human remains at an intersection in Mushrefa neighbourhood” in the Red Sea city, spokesman Nawaf bin Naser al-Bouq said in a statement. Initial indications were that the remains “fell from a plan’s landing gear,” said Bouq, adding that investigations were ongoing.In an eager attempt to cross borders, some people at poorly monitored airports climb in the bays holding the landing gear of planes. Many of them freeze to death after the aircraft reach cruising altitude, but some survive. In 2010, the head of Beirut's airport security resigned after the death of a person who were able to sneak onto a runway undetected and hide in the wheel bay of a Saudi-bound jet. The man's body was found by way of a maintenance worker in Riyadh who was simply inspecting the landing gear of the Saudi-owned Nas Air Airbus 320 after it touched down there.
