A Lebanese national was fatally shot and killed in cold blood inside his car Wednesday evening in the southern town of Majdelyoun east of Sidon, media reports said Thursday.

The victim was identified as Maroun Nohra, 47. He was in his car when an unidentified assailant approached the vehicle's side window and shot him four times, twice in the chest, once in the face and shoulder.

He was transported to a nearby hospital but later succumbed to his wounds.

Video footage from a street surveillance camera showed Nohra parking his vehicle on the side of the road when the attacker approached him. The latter exchanged some words with the victim, then pulled out his gun and shot Nohra.

The National News Agency reported later during the day that the assailant was identified by his initials as W.Aa.

Security Forces raided his place of residence in Majdelyoun but he was no where to be found. His parents were taken to detention pending interrogation.

Mother of the assailant confessed that her son had recently discovered that she had a relationship with the victim.

Investigations are ongoing and the search for the killer continue.
