Army Contains Akkar Family Quarrel after Grenade Attack
 [An Nahar] A dispute between young men from the Joud and Ismail families in the Akkar town of Sahlat al-Qammouha erupted into a fistfight that was followed by a grenade attack on the house of one of the quarrelling men in the Akkar town of Fnaideq, state-run National News Agency reported Sunday.Why'm I thinking of Uncle Earl Joud acting up at the annual clan barbecue? Mahmoud! Fetch my grenades! The quarrel and the grenade attack caused no casualties, NNA added. Uncle Earl never could shoot straight when he was sloshed. Uncle Earl couldn't shoot straight when he was stone cold sober. Then again, he was never sober... A Lebanese army unit then intervened to restore calm in the town, arresting a number of people suspected of being involved in the incident, NNA said, adding that army troops were still pursuing several suspects.
