A video was released on Thursday showing the murder of Elie Numan who was killed in Sid al-Bauchrieh on Wednesday.

Numan, his brother Bernard, and a Syrian worker Tony Nehme were the victims of a shooting on Wednesday afternoon.

“Four individuals – B. Nehme, E. Semaan, M. Tantawi (Egyptian national) and A. Nammour -- got out of a Grand Cherokee SUV and entered a shop belonging to the Numan family and a dispute ensued over the repair of a motorcycle belonging to Tantawi. The dispute then erupted into a fistfight before Nehme opened fire at the shop’s owners,” the National News Agency said on Wednesday.

The shooting was a result of a personal dispute at a motorcycle repair shop, it added.

Voice of Lebanon radio reported on Thursday that the shooters have all been arrested.

Later on Wednesday, youths blocked the Dekwaneh road with burning tires in protest against Numan’s death.
