Riyadh police have arrested a Filipino driver for killing his Saudi sponsor.

Police spokesman Brig. Nasser Al-Qahtani said the crime took place at about 4 p.m. on Sunday. Sulaimaniya police were informed by telephone that a 56-year-old Saudi had been killed.

Preliminary investigation pointed the needle of suspicion at his Filipino driver because the two were not on good terms following a conflict.

The Filipino had run away from the scene after committing the crime.

“Security officers were able to catch him within a few hours,” Al-Qahtani said.

Meanwhile, security officers are looking for a young Saudi man for allegedly attacking Saudi Telecom’s customer service office in Muzahamiya, west of Riyadh, on Sunday.

Informed sources told an online newspaper that the man was holding a gun and had broken the office’s glass door. He had also threatened the office staff. The man’s father told police that he did not know where his son was hiding.
