A radiation hotspot has been detected in Tokyo, officials said Thursday, but authorities said it may not be linked to the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant.

As researchers carry out stringent tests to map how far contamination has spread from the plant, a mayor of western Tokyo told reporters that glass bottles found under the floorboards of a nearby house were likely the cause.

Local media had widely suspected that the hotspot was created after the March 11 disaster crippled the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, which has leaked radiation into the environment.

But as researchers inspected the area more closely, they found the levels were even higher inside a house adjacent to the sidewalk and discovered a box containing several glass bottles under the floorboards.
