Video shows ‘man in hat’ fleeing airport after Brussels bombing attack

Belgian prosecutors have launched a public appeal for any information on the “man in hat” suspect in the Brussels Airport suicide bombings that killed 16 people. Belgian Federal Prosecutor Eric Van der Sypt said Thursday that authorities were especially appealing to people who might have filmed or photographed the man. Photos released by the prosecutors showed him leaving the airport on foot, walking to the nearby town of Zaventem and then into Brussels, where all traces of him were reportedly lost.

He was earlier seen with two suicide bombers who died in the March 22 attacks.

A subsequent explosion at Brussels' Maelbeek (Maalbeek) subway station killed another 16 people the same day.
