إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The plan of two masked gunmen to rob a bank in Beirut’s southern suburbs went down the drain on Tuesday after the manager and employees set off the alarm, the National News Agency reported.

NNA said that the armed thieves entered the Fransabank branch of Burj al-Barajneh in broad daylight and ordered the staff to hand them the cash.

But the bank manager and the employees confronted them and forced them to flee after they heard the alarm, NNA said.

It added that the two men threw away their masks near the bank and took a secondary road to escape the scene on a motorcycle.

Police launched an investigation to identify the assailants.

Lack of authority of the state leads to this chaos. Bank robberies are a common thing these days!

the good news about this robbery is: the lebanese shia are beginning to confront "ashraf el nass",, in the end the lebanese love the way they live in lebanon.

Jabalamel the Zionist are Hezbollah half brothers from different mothers equally destroying the image of Lebanon. The Zionist with cluster bombs and Hezbollah with their radical terrorism including Aoun campaign against freedom and people revolution same as the Syrian regime. Lebanese don't have electricity in 20 century that means a lot about the political corruption, conspiracy by war criminals.

@Lebneneh It happens in all the countries, don't blame the authorities it's not logic to blame them.
Bank robberies are the most common ones in the world.
