Police: Airplane part tied to 9/11 found...found behind the planned site of an Islamic community center

A piece of one of the airliners that hit the World Trade Center towers on September 11, 2001, has been found behind the planned site of an Islamic community center near ground zero, the New York Police Department said Friday.
Part of a landing gear was discovered wedged between 51 Park Place -- the site of the controversial community center -- and another building just blocks from ground zero and "includes a clearly visible Boeing identification number," police said in a written statement.
The part was discovered Wednesday by surveyors, whom were hired by a property owner. They called 911 to report that they'd found "apparently damaged machinery," the police said.
"The NYPD is securing the location as it would a crime scene," the statement said.
