The body was found in the wheel well of one of the main landing gears on flight 202, which arrived at Kahului Airport from Chicago on Tuesday, United said in an emailed statement. The airline said the wheel well of the Boeing 787-10 was only accessible from the outside of the aircraft, and that it was unclear how or when the person accessed it.

In an emailed statement, the Maui Police Department said it was “actively investigating” the discovery of the dead body.

Neither United nor the Maui Police Department shared further details. The Associated Press called Kahului Airport on Wednesday and was directed to a public affairs officer for the state department of transportation. The public affairs officer did not immediately respond to a voicemail and email from AP requesting comment.
