The service dog sprang toward the baby stroller at the airport

Unstoppable Duo: Officer Andre and Luna

Officer Andre and his service dog Luna, a highly trained German Shepherd, had been an unbreakable team for three years. That day at Otopeni Airport, Luna’s ears perked and her tail stiffened. Her eyes locked on a woman pushing a baby stroller.

Something about the woman triggered Luna’s instincts. Andre trusted his dog’s judgment—Luna had never been wrong. He approached the passenger immediately.

Suspicious Behavior at Terminal D

Luna sniffed the baby wrapped in a blue blanket. Suddenly, she let out a low, angry growl. Passengers turned to watch. The woman gripping the stroller trembled.

“Take that dog away from my baby!” she shouted.

Andre tried to pull Luna away, but she refused. For the first time in three years, Luna ignored her handler’s command.

The Shocking Discovery

Instead of retreating, Luna stepped closer. She tugged at the blanket, revealing a shocking sight. The stroller didn’t hold a baby. Instead, it contained a thermal bag labeled in Russian and Chinese, marked with biological hazard symbols. Inside were shiny containers emitting a strange odor.

Andre grabbed the woman by the arm and moved her aside. He immediately alerted the antiterrorist team.

Airport Lockdown and Investigation

“What is this?” Andre demanded. The woman broke down, claiming ignorance. Her job, she said, was simply to move the bag past security.

Authorities cleared and locked down the area. Specialists in protective gear handled the thermal bag. Investigators traced the materials from illicit Asian labs to a secret European facility. The containers were part of an international trafficking ring of banned biological substances. If released, intentionally or accidentally, they could have caused a major disaster.
