According to an AFP correspondent and a security source, three bank "robberies" were reported in Beirut and two in southern Lebanon on Friday.
In one incident, a man in the southern town of Ghazia entered a bank with a pistol and a jerrycan full of fuel and demanded his money back.
The security guard of the bank said that the man emptied the jerrycan full of fuel on the floor and demanded the money back in his account.
The 'robber' who left the bank with 19,000 dollars was detained by the police, but after some time, the crowd came to the street in his support.
