Khouzai Najib Hatoum was found dead in his car on Saturday after receiving two gunshots in the neck, the state-run National News Agency reported.

“The body of Hatoum was discovered in his gray Kia Picanto on the Falougha-Metn road that leads to (the Mountain region of) Hammana,” the NNA detailed.

“He was shot with a 12-millimeters hunting gun from a close distance.”

The same source said that the 53 years old man hails from the Mount Lebanon town of Kfarsalwan.

Security authorities have launched an investigation in the incident.

The NNA remarked that Mount Lebanon General Prosecutor Arlette Tabet and coroner Ahmed al-Meqdad have came to the location where the body was found to inspect it.

"Al-Meqdad confirmed that Hatoum was killed with a hunting gun," the NNA noted.

The victim's body was transferred to al-Jabal Hospital in al-Metn's Qornayel town.

stop blaming Hezbollah for everything that occurs in lebanon! If HA wanted to kill this man (RIP), they would have used real weapons, not hunting rifles. It is probably a thief. that is it!
