Mysterious Plane Found Abandoned On Side Of Florida Road – Independent Newspaper Nigeria

Authorities in Florida are investigat­ing the mystery of a plane discovered abandoned on the side of a Bay Coun­ty road.

The Springfield Police Department reported on social media that “a por­tion of a plane” — the cockpit, nose, and front propeller — was discovered abandoned along Transmitter Road.

The plane is marked by ZooWorld in Panama City Beach, including giraffe logos on the seats, but the company said it sold the plane about a week ago.

“That was once part of an exhibit, but it was removed to make it more user-friendly for people in wheelchairs and compliant for people, so every­one could enjoy it.” According to Jadena Terrell, ZooWorld’s assis­tant park director.

The police also stated that they discovered the person who took possession of the plane had taken it to a scrap yard.

“There is some kind of material in­side the instruments that causes the glow at night, so the scrap yard can not take them,” said Russell Voyles, assistant police chief for the Spring­field Police Department. “So they took a portion of the plane, but they did not take the section behind me.”

Police are now investigating how the remaining portion of the plane ended up on the side of the road. Voyles stated that once the investiga­tion is completed, a decision will be made on whether to pursue civil or criminal charges against the respon­sible party.
