Chapter 30
ATHENS, GREECE
A five-year-old boy, known only as Noah, was abducted yesterday afternoon from the Port of Piraeus in Athens, while awaiting the arrival of his adoptive parents from America.
Earlier that day, a private jet carrying Noah’s actual adoptive parents crashed into the Aegean Sea.
The couple, identified as Mr. Anthony A.
Jarrell and Mrs. Gloria Jarrell of Connecticut, USA, were en route to Athens to finalize the adoption.
Tragically, both were killed. They leave behind two children, Alexander and Teya Jarrell, who remain in the United States.
An investigation into the crash is currently underway. Preliminary reports suggest engine failure may be to blame. According to the aviation officials, the flight crew radioed concerns about mechanical issues shortly before all contact was lost over the Aegean.
Noah has been in the custody of Greek Social Services since 2005, after being found abandoned in a cardboard box near the Albania-Greece border.
His biological parents remain unknown, and his place of birth is still undetermined.
He is described as having blond hair, blue eyes, and weighing approximately thirty pounds.
Anyone with information about Noah’s current whereabouts is urged to contact the local authorities immediately.
