Tripoli, 27 April 2015:
A four-hour gun battle between two families in Sebha yesterday left two men dead and . . .[restrict]several others injured.
The fight broke out in the New Hijara area of Sebha, behind the town’s pasta factory. A disagreement between two members of the family led to shots being fired. In the end two men were shot and killed. Hassan Jumaa Hagar, a 30-year old, and Ibrahim Faraj Al-Senussi, 26, both received fatal wounds to the chest.
The injured include Ibrahim’s 65-year-old father, Faraj Al-Senussi, as well as Mohammed Hassan Khalifa, Mohamed Abubaker Adam, Hamid Ahmed Al-Sunni and Ahmed Ibrahim. It is thought that some of the injured were simply bystanders and not directly involved in the dispute. They are all in stable condition.
After police barricaded the street, family elders were brought in and able to bring an end to the fighting. The incident is now being investigated by the police. [/restrict]
