Child ‘Passenger’ Dies In Plane Landing Gear After Tragic Flight To Paris

A 10-year-old Ivorian was found dead inside Air France landing gear at Paris airport after a six-hour flight from Abidjan in Ivory Coast to Paris.

A report has it that the victim of the Tuesday incident was a boy who tried to cruise to France inside landing gear of a Boeing 777 which landed at 5p.m. in Paris.

Staff of Air France said they made the grisly discovery shortly after the landing of the plane.

Air France have confirmed the incident and says it is investigating the death of the child.

Air France said in a statement that: “Air France confirms that the lifeless body of a stowaway was discovered in the well of the landing gear of the aircraft performing flight AF703 connecting Abidjan (ABJ) to Paris-Charles de Gaulle on January 7, 2020.”

Similarly, in 2019, the body of Stowaway was found in the garden of a home near Heathrow Airport after falling from an aircraft flying from Kenya’s capital Nairobi.

In 2017 a Nigerian teenager, Daniel Ikekina evaded airport security to hide in a wheel compartment of an airplane which flew 6 hours from Lagos to Benin, as reports have it that he assumed the flight was headed abroad.
