The family of a Nashville couple who was reported missing after an Islamic terrorist attack at the Brussels Airport and subway has apparently been given misinformation of their location, and could still be missing.

Justin's half brother, Levi Sutton, told NewsChannel 5 that Justin's mom got a call from the state department, who told her the couple has appeared on an injured list. Yet, the severity of their injuries or what hospital they were located in was unclear.

However, a short time later, Sutton tweeted out information saying an official told them the family had been misinformed.

 

When asked about the information the State Department said, “We are unable to provide additional information due to privacy considerations.”

Justin and Stephanie Shults lived in Nashville before moving to Brussels for work.

The couple was at the airport dropping off Stephanie's mother, after a week long visit when the attack occurred. Their parents have planned to travel to Brussels to be with them while they recover.

Justin and Stephanie, lived in Brussels for two years, working as accountants. They met while attending Vanderbilt University.
