Two terror suspects, civilian killed in shootouts in Saudi capital
(AFP)
29 December 2004
RIYADH - Saudi security forces shot dead a gunman in Riyadh early on
Wednesday in a fresh shootout as they combed the district where a terror
suspect and
a civilian were killed in a clash the previous night, the interior ministry
said.
The gunman opened fire from the car he was driving and hurled a bomb at
security men, slightly injuring four of them, said a ministry statement
reported by official media.
âSecurity forces at the scene chased the car and encircled it, trading
fire with the driver, who was killed on the spot,â the statement said.
The incident occurred as security forces were combing the scene of
Tuesday eveningâs clash in the Saudi capital in which a suspected militant
and a
civilian were killed, the ministry said.
Security forces also arrested âa suspected member of the deviant
groupâ
in the Red Sea city of Jeddah Wednesday, the ministry added, using the
official term for suspected Al Qaeda militants.
They have killed more than 100 people and wounded hundreds more since
launching a wave of bombing and shooting attacks in May 2003.
Many militants and security men have been killed in clashes since the
wave of attacks began. Hundreds of suspects have been rounded up.
The man was wounded âwhile resisting security forces and attempting to
flee,â the ministry said, promising to release more details later.
Earlier Wednesday, the interior ministry said a suspected terrorist and
a civilian were killed during a shootout between Saudi security forces and
armed men in Riyadh Tuesday evening.
âSecurity forces chased a car carrying two members of the deviant
group,â
the ministry said.
âThe car stopped near a gas station inside a residential district of
Riyadh. When security forces approached the vehicle, those inside it opened
fire,
â a ministry official said, quoted by the state SPA news agency.
The security forces returned fire, killing one of the gunmen and
wounding the other, the official said.
A gas station attendant was also killed, and a security man slightly
injured, he said.
Security forces seized automatic weapons, ammunition, bombs, explosives,
forged documents and an unspecified amount of money in the car, the official
added.
He did not disclose the identity of the two members of the âdeviant
group.â
Gunmen stormed the US consulate in Jeddah on December 6, killing five
non-American staff members in the latest attack claimed by Al Qaeda militants.
