Unbelievable: Authorities Claim 16 Year Old North Carolina Teen Whose Mangled Body Was Found Near Boston, Fell From An Airplane [Video]
Video After The Jump
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - It was a theory so bizarre, no one wanted to believe it. How in the world could 16-year-old Delvonte Tisdale, a well-liked, well-behaved North Meck student, have managed to stow away in the wheel well of a commercial airplane?
Officials near Boston say it's true and Friday, voiced the question on everyone's mind. "If that was someone with a different motive, than perhaps a young man's curiosity, if that was someone with a different motive, if that was a terrorist, that could be a bomb that's planted there undetected,” says Norfolk Co., Mass. District Attorney William Keating.
Investigators say they've found hand prints inside the wheel well, as well as Tisdale's shirt and sneakers along a flight path in a wooded area in Massachusetts, the same area his body was discovered in November.
Derick Brown lives in Tisdale's neighborhood in north Charlotte. He describes the probable airport security breach as "unreal." He says, "That's supposedly a secure area that he was able to get through, so yeah, not knowing any more than what I know, you have to wonder, was he helped? I mean, was he ignored? How?"
"The systems they have in place are as good as anywhere,” says Barry Brush of Charlotte-Douglas Airport. Brush is a retired US Airways pilot. He flew commercial airplanes for 32 years and says looking for stowaways is just not on the "to do" list. "We don't see what we're not looking for,” says Brush.
Brush's experience tells him Tisdale died before he fell from the plane near Boston. He could have been crushed by the plane's gear, but if he survived that, he would most likely have not been able to survive the lack of oxygen or freezing temperatures.
At an altitude of about 35,000 feet, temps in the wheel well would have reached negative 30 degrees. "You have to realize that by the time he did fall from the airplane, that was probably a non-event for him,” says Brush.
The FAA tells us that there have been 86 stowaway attempts. Only 18 people survived. The last time someone tried it on a domestic flight was in 1972.
"That kind of breach of security better be investigated to the full extent and it shouldn't be an issue of who's responsible. Everyone should be looking at what they can do,” says Keating of the Tisdale breach.
Both the TSA and Charlotte-Douglas airport officials tell us they are investigating how this happened and will release more information as early as Monday.

Look people. This kid did not go to the airport and stow himself away in the wheel well. This is a stunt to increase perimeter security at the airport. Pretty soon every police station, airport, bank, or anything else government related will be impenetrable. Why you ask? Cuz once people realize how s***** their lives are in the future and they wanna revolt and try to take s*** back. Well now they got 10 ft walls covered in 4000 volt barbed wire. On the real I feel sorry his family. I wonder how he really died, definitely covert ops s***. You guys should trust me, I'm only trying to spread truth. Hey Look up your state's "fusion center".

@BeantownG I definetely agree, there was definetely some foul play involved and its being covered up by the air port . The security is crazy at the airport, and there being no video footage of the incident ? This is definetely a cover up for something else. Whats even more crazy is that the only story they could come up with to cover up the foul play was this bullsh*t, give me a break.

the crazy thing is that happened right next to my school, they originally thought that a neighborhood kid was brutally beaten and then thought someone in the school had run over his body, my school was ready to raise the level of security at all the gates cuz they thought the "gangsters" around the college were getting out of control

For all those that believe this story is true, where is the footage of the kid in the airport? With all the security afta 9/11, no footage? I feel sad for his parents but I'm starting to feel more sad for the people that believe this s***.
