WATCH: New Footage Shows Brussels Suspect Walking Away from Attack
New video footage shows one suspect's escape path from the Brussels airport.
Since two Islamic State terrorists detonated themselves at the Brussels airport on March 22, Belgian investigators have desperately searched for a third suspect who is believed to have escaped the coordinated attack.

The identity of the suspect, who appeared on airport footage next to the two suicide bombers, remains a mystery. He has come to be known only as “the man in white.”
But new footage released by Belgian police Thursday shows he ditched that defining article of clothing in a trash can within an hour after the attack and calmly walked away from the airport, which is just outside of the capital. Security cameras track his nearly two-hour walk through the town of Zaventem and ultimately into the Shaarbeek district of Brussels.
Now officials are appealing for witnesses who saw the suspect, who was wearing a light-colored shirt with the sleeves rolled up, to offer information on where he went next. They are also still hunting for the missing coat.
