The bodies of two middle-aged men who had been shot in the head were discovered in two regions near Beirut early Friday, the National News Agency reported.
NNA said the body of Albert Ramez al-Nashar, 52, was found under a bridge in the town of Antelias. It was taken to Haroun hospital in Zalka.
Voice of Lebanon radio station (93.3) quoted a security source as saying that a speeding car dropped the body at around 3:00 am.
The second victim was identified as 48-year-old Shaker Saeed Abdul Nour. His body was found near a marble factory in the Jisr al-Wati area of the town of Sin el-Fil.
