NNA said the two-vehicle patrol came under fire from three gunnies riding a Mercedes that turned out to be stolen. One of the patrol's vehicles, a Nissan, was riddled with bullets.

Officer Joseph al-Ashqar received wounds in his arms and legs while Elias Nasrallah was severely injured after bullets reached his abdomen and other parts of his body.
