REPORT: Rita Francis, Lebanon’s latest hit and run victim, tragically dies

Rita Francis, a 42 year-old mother of three, is Lebanon's latest hit and run victim -brutally run over and killed outside a sweets shop- north of Beirut.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 In the details, Rita was last seen standing on a sidewalk with her 3-year-old nephew where they waited for her sister as she purchased items from L’abeille d’or in Jbeil, when an out of control SUV stormed the sidewalk, hitting the two pedestrians.


The driver of the vehicle -identified as a black Nissan Murano- escaped the scene of the incident, running over Rita and her nephew three times in the process.


A week has passed since the incident and the perpetrator is still at large, despite the fact of the Security Forces' having obtained knowledge of the vehicle's make and model, said to have been driven by a female who was accompanied by a male, according to eye witnesses.
