A Michigan man who tried to abduct two girls flipped off at their families while in court — as he backtracked on a plea deal over the charges, according to reports. Endi Bala, 25, appeared in a Mount Clemens courthouse over the August 2024 attempted kidnapping – and it was expected he would plead no contest before suddenly having a change of heart, the Macomb Daily reported. Bala, who is originally from Albania and moved to the US when he was a teen, allegedly tried to snatch Olivia and Alexis, who were 7 and 15 at the time, within a 45 minute period – and faces charges of kidnapping and child enticement.
