I still can't get over this story. A couple refused to pay for another ticket and left their baby near the check-in desk while they attempted to board their flight. According to a local news, after the couple refused to purchase another ticket for the baby, a commotion started, and the couple left toward the direction of their flight. The incident occured in Tel Aviv airport. A flight attendant noticed the baby and the local police were notified.

The police have taken the couple in for questioning. The couple were not identified, but held Belgian passports. They were heading back to Belgium via a Ryanair flight. This incident took place about a week ago and has caught the attention of several mainstream media as well (including CNN, Fox, CTV, etc.)

Perhaps it's not their baby. Perhaps it's a case of child trafficking. There are no updates to this story, but I feel that there should be more. Since there is no update, it's most likely the case of the real parents leaving their natural born. But even if that's the case, would it be fine to return the baby? I imagine the relatives being contacted and getting involved after this incident since it's all over the news.
