On Sunday, Tripoli mourned the young man who was killed during his sister's wedding, succumbing to a bullet shot at him. Eyewitnesses reported that the main cause of the dispute was the insistence of the bride’s brother that his sister ride in his car, while the groom's brother had prepared his vehicle to drive the couple to the celebration. This led to a verbal altercation that escalated into gunfire, resulting in the death of the bride's brother and turning the entire wedding into a funeral in Abi Samra.
Videos circulated showing the victim, Moamen Al-Bayrouti, entering to greet the bride and groom before he was shot by the groom's brother just minutes later, over the argument regarding who would drive the bride. This wedding in Tripoli tragically transformed into a mourning event.
