A Wisconsin native is dead after a plane crash in the Middle East.

Thirty-eight-year-old first officer Matthew Bell, originally of Eau Claire was killed in the wreck in the United Arab Emerites.

The UPS plane went down in Dubai last week.

Investigators said something in the plane's cargo compartment caught fire during the flight.

They're trying to determine what started the flames.

A data transmission system onboard the jet sent a warning via satellite to UPS offices before the crash.
