EL PASO, Texas — An airplane mechanic

was killed Monday morning after he was sucked into a jet's engine while passengers were boarding from the tarmac, officials said.

"A mechanic walked in front of the engine and was pulled into the engine,

" National Transportation Safety Board spokeswoman Lauren Peduzzi said.

She said she didn't know if any passengers saw the accident as

they boarded Continental Airlines flight 1515 to Houston. A Federal

Aviation Administration spokesman said the worker was sucked into the right engine of the 737-500.



The mechanic's identity wasn't released, but Continental identified

the victim as an employee of one of Continental's suppliers. Continental released few other details about what it called a "ground

incident" at El Paso International Airport.


"My fellow co-workers and I extend our heartfelt

sympathies to the family and friends of the mechanic involved in this

tragic event," Larry Kellner, Continental chairman and CEO, said in a statement.



There were 114 passengers and five crew members boarding the plane.

Peduzzi said there had been an earlier problem with the Number 2 engine, so the engine's metal covering was open at the time of the accident.
