Speaking publicly for the first time, the father of a 16-year-old boy from North Carolina said he last saw his son less than 24 hours before he was found dead in Milton, when they had pizza and his son was playing video games.

The next day, on Nov. 15, authorities found the body of Delvonte Tisdale beside a street in an upscale section of the Boston suburb.

Meanwhile, authorities are investigating the "remote possibility'' that the boy fell out of an airplane as it passed over Milton when the aircraft prepared to land at Boston's Logan Airport, a Massport spokesman said today.

Tisdale’s father said he had idea what to make of the theory that his son may have fallen from the wheel well of an airplane.

Authorities re investigating how the teenager made it the 900 miles to Milton, where he had no known ties. Milton police have said his body was mutilated.

Massport spokesman Phil Orlandella today said Massport is now checking records to see what flights and what type of aircraft passed over Milton last Monday night. Arriving flights heading to Runway 4R cross Milton, he said.

Lots of questions... few answers.

Looks like he did in fact stow away on an airliner and fell out at some point... sad.

BOSTON (AP) - A Massachusetts prosecutor said Friday it's likely that a North Carolina teen whose mutilated body was found in a Boston suburb fell from the sky after stowing away in an airplane's wheel well.

Norfolk District Attorney William Keating cited evidence including a handprint in the wheel well, clothes strewn along the plane's flight path and an autopsy report indicating the teen fell "from a significant height."

Wow. When the thread was first posted I thought there was no way that happened. Pretty sad.

He'd obviously watched 'Commando' and thought it was real life.

What goes up...

What goes up...

Freezes and asphyxiates at 30,000 feet up and then falls out as the plane starts landing?

Yep wheel well isnt pressurized and there isnt even doors on the rear landing wheels. Small area of to the side he could sit but he was most likely dead long before the landing wheels came down.

you'd never think that "not trying to stow-away in the wheel well of an airplane" would be something you'd have to teach your kids.

There was a little girl, after watching the first Harry Potter movie, thought it would be fun to fly. She went to the closet, got the broom, climbed up on the counter and leaped off. Broke an arm if I remember. I would say that some kids are just stupid, but if you watch America's Funniest Home Videos or Jackass, I have to revise that.

Some people are just stupid! Or else they didn't pay attention in Physics Class.
