Teen's Body Found In Airliner Wheel Well

Plane Had Flown From Norway To The Netherlands

The body of a teenager was discovered in the main landing gear wheel well of a KLM airliner after it landed at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam Thursday.

The French News Service AFP reports that the body is thought to be that of a 17-year-old Norwegian teenager who went missing Wednesday. Local police said in a statement that the cause of death appeared to be lack of oxygen.

Dutch media reports that the KLM flight originated in Sandefjord-Torp airport near Oslo in Norway. Norwegian police said that a teenager who lived about 12 miles from the airport and suffered from a form of autism went missing Wednesday night. It has not been confirmed if that is the person who was discovered in the wheel well.

The New York Daily News reports that the plane was an Embraer E190 operating as flight 1212.
