The pastor of Baalbek-Deir al-Ahmar escaped a kidnap attempt on Saturday evening in the Bekaa.

“Pastor Semaan Atallah was able to escape an abduction attempt on the Iaat-Deir al-Ahmar road,” the state-run National News Agency.

"Two four-wheel drives followed our car and tried to intercept it,” Semaan detailed on the incident, according to NNA.

"I was in the car along with the driver, and the latter decided to keep going forward,” he added.

But when the vehicle neared an army checkpoint, the stalkers fled to an unknown destination, the pastor revealed.

"When Semaan arrived in Deir al-Ahmar (in northern Bekaa), the towns’ residents rang the churches’ bells to protest the abduction attempt.”

The NNA noted that Semaan is in good health.
