RIYADH, Jan. 18 (Xinhua) -- The Saudi police said on Wednesday that a Saudi young man was shot in his leg on Tuesday evening by two suspected terror fugitives in Qatif region of the Eastern Province.
The 20-something man sustained a number of gun wounds in the leg on his way to see a relative, said the police.
The incident came a day after the announcement of the arrest of suspected terrorist Hussain Mohamed Al Faraj.
As one of the few predominantly Shiite areas in Saudi Arabia, Qatif suffers on-and-off violence and rioting from those who demand more rights.
