Plane Stowaway Plunges To His Death In The Middle Of A London Street

  • Police say man, believed to be in 30s, could have fallen thousands of feet

  • Found on car parked on road in affluent London suburb of Mortlake

  • Street is around 10 miles away from Heathrow Airport and on flight path

  • Aviation expert believes he froze to death; it appears body fell out of hold

  • Man thought to be from North Africa and suffered multiple injuries

  • Residents described 'monstrous bang' and body parts flying 20ft away



 

Police were investigating today whether a man whose body was found in a residential street in London was a stowaway who fell from a plane as it prepared to land at Heathrow.

The body of the man was discovered in Portman Avenue, Mortlake, south west London, yesterday morning.

Locals in Mortlake, south west London, said the man had suffered multiple injuries and parts of his body had flown up to 20ft away ‘like a melon being whacked’ - but nobody else was injured.

Billy Watson, 26, who lives opposite where the man fell, saw the body ‘all twisted up’ and believed it belonged to someone of Albanian or Moroccan origin.

He said: ‘His head was twisted one way and one of his legs was the wrong way round. His hip had popped out and one of his arms was behind him the wrong way.

‘Bits of his body were just everywhere, and the police were putting their cones by them. The bits had spread about 20 to 30ft away and there was a bit of him in front of my car.

‘He was wearing blue jeans, white trainers and a dark jumper. There was a big pool of blood coming from his head. No-one was around him when I first saw him.

Richard Taylor, from the Civil Aviation Authority, said this kind of incident was not the first of its kind and added that there was very little chance of survival for stowaways.

He said: ‘The temperatures in the undercarriage reach -40C (-40F) at high altitudes, so the person has basically frozen to death. There is virtually no chance of someone surviving that.’

‘It is a very dangerous environment. Very often people get crushed to death by the landing gear when it retracts. It is surprising that people still do it. I guess they don’t realise they have very little chance of surviving.’

He added: 'When the landing gear comes down at the other end, a couple of miles from the runway and about 2,000ft in the air, if there is a person who had died they would fall out.'

The flight path over Portman Avenue where the body was found, around 10 miles from Heathrow, is where the planes opens their undercarriage and lower wheels ready for landing.

A Metropolitan Police spokeswoman said officers were called to Portman Avenue at about 7.55am yesterday “following reports of a dead body”.

She said: “The death is currently being treated as unexplained. A postmortem examination will be held in due course. Inquiries are ongoing to establish the male’s identity.”

On Trial: Brazilian Goalkeeper Bruno Accused Of Murdering Mistress And Feeding Her Body To His Dog

 
  • Brazilian goalkeeper Bruno is accused of murdering mistress Eliza Samudio

  • Prosecutors to allege that he planned to kill the 25-year-old after she claimed her baby was his

  • Loud music was played to drown out model's screams as she was tortured, court will hear

  • He planned to bring up the child, aged four months when his mother died, with his wife and pretend it was the son of a poor relative

 
The Brazilian goalkeeper has maintained his innocence throughout the case, claiming he has a 'clear conscience'

Prosecutors will allege that Bruno attacked a supporter, smoked cannabis and attended orgies with fellow players, a Brazilian newspaper reported

Model: Eliza Samudio is believed to have met Bruno at a party held by another footballer. She later presented a report (right) to police against the footballer, claiming he had made her pregnant

'Killed': Brazilian model Eliza Samudio went missing months after she posed for this photograph to show the early signs of her pregnancy. Prosecutors at Bruno's trial will allege that part of her dismembered body was fed to the footballer's pet rottweilers

On trial: Footballer Bruno Fernandes de Souza (in red), pictured shortly after his arrest in 2010, is alleged to have turned model Eliza Samudio 'into a human sacrifice' to preserve his reputation after she had his love child

Married Bruno Fernandes de Souza, 27, a goalkeeper once tipped to play for Brazilian club Flamengo, is alleged to have turned model Eliza Samudio 'into a human sacrifice' to preserve his reputation after she gave birth to his love child.

He is already serving a four-and-a-half-year prison sentence after being convicted of assaulting and abducting Ms Samudio, 25, but will be tried for her murder later this year.

Prosecutors allege that Bruno planned Ms Samudio's kidnap and murder with eight others, including his wife Dayane, a teenage cousin and former detective Luiz Santos, all of whom have been charged with murder, conspiracy to murder and kidnapping.

The goalkeeper is said to have watched as Santos committed 'barbaric tortures' on Ms Samudio before helping the former detective dismember her body.

Parts of the woman's body are alleged to have been fed to Bruno's dogs while the rest was buried in concrete.

Bruno is accused of ordering his wife to tell people that his love child, who was four months old at the time of the killing, had been adopted by them from a poor relative.

It is also claimed that Bruno told police Ms Samudio was 'a whore who will not be missed by anyone'.

A Brazilian newspaper has reported that the prosecution at the trial will allege that Bruno attacked a supporter, smoked cannabis and attended orgies with fellow players.

Edson Moreira, a detective who investigated the case, told the Sunday Express: 'An idol like Bruno, from such a major team, has turned out to be a monster.

'We have witnesses who will testify that he turned this girl into a human sacrifice merely to try to protect his reputation.'

The trial is expected to hear that Bruno met Ms Samudio at a party held by a teammate.

'Unfortunately for her, they slept together that night and she later discovered she was pregnant,' Mr Moreira said. 'When she approached de Souza and told him he was the father, he became enraged.'

Prosecutors will allege that Bruno planned Ms Samudio's murder after she told him she would take legal action to prove he was the father of her child.

In a statement to police, his cousin claimed that, led by Santos, they kidnapped Ms Samudio from a hotel in Rio de Janeiro on June 4, 2010.

He said they drove her some 220 miles to a property in Belo Horizonte which the footballer and his wife used occasionally as a weekend retreat, where Ms Samudio was tortured.

It is claimed that Santos played loud music on the stereo to drown out the woman's screams.

Bruno, whose contract with Flamengo has been suspended, also faces charges of kidnapping, hiding a body and forming a criminal gang with intent to murder.

He has maintained his innocence throughout, claiming he has a 'clear conscience'.
