A dispute between members of the same family in a western Bekaa town turned into a shooting, leaving several people injured, the state-run National News Agency reported Monday.
NNA said that the disagreement between Hashem family members started when they began throwing stones on each other in the town of Ain el-Tineh. It later turned ugly when shots were fired.
Several of them were wounded in the attack, the agency added.
A Lebanese man was killed in a similar incident on Sunday when two families armed with sticks and machetes engaged in a fight in a town in the northern district of Akkar.
NNA said that Khairallah al-Sheikh died when he was hit on his head with a stick.
