Newly-released CCTV footage appears to back up the seemingly unbelievable story of a teenager who survived a five-and-a-half hour flight hidden in a jet's wheel well.
Hawaiian transport officials released security footage of 15-year-old Yahya Abdi hopping from the plane after stowing away on the flight from San Jose, California, to Maui.
The video largely confirms previous accounts given by FBI and airport officials of the Somali immigrant's story - that he jumped over a fence at San Jose airport and climbed into the wheel well of the closest plane.
Aviation experts had expressed disbelief the boy could have survived a flight at 35,000ft, enduring low oxygen levels and freezing temperatures.
The six minutes of security footage released by the Hawaii Department of Transportation show Abdi lowering himself from the Boeing 767 and jumping to the ground.
He sits on the concrete for 13 seconds, then gets up and slowly walks toward the front of the plane.
It is thought teenager Yahya Abdi was trying to get to Somalia He wobbles slightly as he walks, pausing briefly a few times in the roughly 40 seconds it takes him to get under the passageway connecting the front of the plane with the terminal.
Abdi walks up to an airport worker driving a cart and remains standing as the pair talk for about three minutes before walking away together.
Caroline Sluyter, a spokeswoman for the Hawaii Department of Transportation, said the footage was released after the state attorney general's office reviewed media requests.
San Jose police spokesman Albert Morales said Abdi flew back to California over the weekend and was being cared for by Santa Clara County Child Protective Services.
He said authorities plan to work with the boy's attorney to set up an interview with him in the near future.
After the department concludes its investigation, it will consult with Santa Clara County district attorney's office and city of San Jose representatives to decide whether to file charges against him, he added.
