The Anti-Drug Bureau of the Internal Security Forces arrested Thursday evening a prominent fugitive in Beirut's southern suburbs.

“An exchange of gunfire erupted between a patrol from the Anti-Drug Bureau of the ISF's Judicial Police Department and dangerous fugitives in the al-Joura neighborhood in Dahieh,” MTV reported.

The clash left a member of the patrol and the top fugitive Kh. H. H. wounded, MTV said.

It noted that the man is wanted on 123 arrest warrants.

“The clashes lasted for around 15 minutes, before security forces managed to capture the fugitive and take him to custody,” the TV network added.
