For days, the road to Beirut Airport has become a source of concern and terror for many Lebanese, after repeated incidents of stones being thrown at passing cars from the pedestrian bridge adjacent to the Sports City, in a dangerous scene that raised widespread questions about the safety of pedestrians and drivers, especially after one of these incidents claimed a victim.

The story began when the young man Muhammad Hamza (born in 1975) was injured after a large stone hit his car while he was passing by the bridge at night, returning from work. After days of shock and public anger, he passed away due to his injuries, turning the case into a public issue that occupied the Lebanese and revived fears of the recurrence of such assaults.

With the rising demands to identify the perpetrator, the General Directorate of Internal Security Forces announced the arrest of the person responsible for throwing stones at citizens' cars from the Sports City bridge in Beirut, actions that led to Hamza's death.

A photo of the arrested person for the crime of throwing stones at citizens' cars has been circulated; anyone who fell victim to his actions or any other crime is requested to contact the Information Branch. This is issued by the General Directorate of Internal Security Forces – Public Relations Division.
