Official: Divers see Lion Air jet fuselage, new ’ping’ heard

Rescuers recover the remains of victims of the Lion Air jet that crashed into the sea on Monday, at Tanjung Priok Port in Jakarta, Indonesia.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) _ Divers reported seeing the fuselage and engines of the crashed Lion Air jet on the seafloor and a ping locator has detected a signal that may be from the cockpit voice recorder, Indonesia’s search and rescue chief said Saturday.

Speaking on the sixth day of the search, Muhammad Syaugi said that two engines and more landing gear had been found. The plane crashed in waters 30 meters (98 feet) deep but strong currents have hampered the search.
