Police have discontinued their investigation into reports of the discovery of a small plane in a bushy area in St John.
According to police, a recent video circulating over the past 24 hours pointed to the discovery of a small aircraft in a wooded area located at Glenburnie, St Margaret’s Village, St John.
This matter was reported to the police on Saturday.
Having attended the scene and carried out investigations, police said there is no reason to be overly concerned, adding that the aircraft is only a shell with no engine or wings.
It was placed there some years ago — between 2016 and 2017 — by an individual who is a resident in the area, police said.
The individual was interviewed and stated that it was there for such a long period that the trees and wooded vegetation had since overgrown the area and the aircraft shell.
There is no evidence of suspicious activity or a plane crash, police said.
