Views 68

Police are investigating whether a piece of plane wreckage washed up on the French-owned Reunion island in the Indian Ocean is from the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.

The debris looks like a wing flap but officials have little else to go on and have stressed it is too early to say one way or another.

A local described seeing something on the shore line and watching it until he got a closer look and then convinced himself it was a piece of a plane’s wing. What type of plane is unclear.

Malaysia Airlines is said to be sending a team to Reunion to help with the investigation.

No trace has been found of the Boeing 777, which disappeared in March last year carrying 239 passengers and crew from Kuala Lumpur for Beijing.

Search teams have been focusing off the coast of Western Australia
