In a tragic incident at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport, a person lost their life after getting caught in a running aircraft engine, according to Dutch airline KLM. The incident, which occurred on Wednesday, has sparked an investigation by the Dutch military police, Marechausse.
Initial reports about the incident emerged earlier in the day via Dutch media outlets. The spokesperson for the Marechausse confirmed that the identity of the deceased is not yet known. It is still too early to determine whether this was an "incident" or a form of suicide.
The Marechausse spokesperson stressed that the safety of all passengers and crew on board the aircraft has been ensured, and they are considered important witnesses in the ongoing investigation.
