  I’m sure it was a misunderstanding. 
  
  The couple left the infant seat with the baby and ran toward the security checks at Terminal 1 in an attempt to reach the boarding gate
  
  Oh, okay, well, um…
  Edit: person replied to me with a very reasonable suggestion as to what might have happened. (Exhausted and in a hurry, neither realized the other one didn’t have the baby)
  It’s quite possible this is right, I’ll give ‘em that.
context: A spokesman for Israel Police told CNN in a phone call that the matter appeared to have been resolved by the time police arrived on the scene. He said: “The baby was with the parents and there’s no further investigation.”
  
  Uh...Okay...
