London Neighborhood Shaken After Man Falls From Sky

London Neighborhood Shaken After Man Falls From Sky

Stacy-Ann Ellis Posted December 10, 2012

According to the Associated Press, London's Metropolitan Police released a computer-based image of the man who seemingly fell out the sky and onto the sidewalk of a suburban town near Heathrow Airport.

Back in September, an African man stowed away in a plane traveling from Angola to London fell out when the aircraft lowered its landing gear. Unfortunately, he didn't survive and landed with a thud in London's suburban Mortlake neighborhood, startling passersby and residents of the typically quiet town. Three months later, his identity still has not been determined.

Authorities are asking the public to help identify the man who they presume died within the first hour of the flight due to the non-pressurized state of the plane's cargo area.
