Human body parts that fell from the sky in Saudi Arabia could be the remains of someone trapped in an aircraft's undercarriage bay, police have revealed.
Officers said the grisly incident happened near the centre of the Red Sea city of Jeddah, just south of King Abdulaziz International Airport, early this morning.
Force spokesman Nawaf bin Naser al-Bouq said: 'Police received a telephone call at 2.30 am from a witness reporting the fall of human remains at an intersection in Mushrefa neighbourhood.'
A plane is pictured after an emergency landing at Medina airport. Twenty nine people were injured
Initial indications were that the remains 'fell from a plane's landing gear,' said Bouq, adding that investigations were ongoing.
The report came after a Saudi Arabian Airlines jet made an emergency landing in the city of Medina in the west of the kingdom, injuring 29 people on Sunday.
That aircraft had been travelling from Iran's second city of Mashhad with 315 people on board.
A spokesman for the General Authority of Civil Aviation said there was no connection between the emergency landing in Medina and the Jeddah incident.
