The Lebanese army fired gunshots into the air during a protest blocking a road near the city of Tripoli on Saturday, a witness and Lebanese broadcaster al-Jadeed said.
State news agency NNA said gunfire was heard, without giving further details of where it was coming from. NNA said several people were injured, some seriously.
As part of 10 days of nationwide demonstrations in Lebanon, protesters had blocked a road out of the northern city of Tripoli near the Beddawi Palestinian refugee camp.
Reuters TV footage showed soldiers and young men throwing stones at each other.
