A Saudi official source on Sunday categorically denied a report circulated by The Agence France Press (AFP) which quoted unauthenticated sources as saying that corpses of two persons including an American, who were killed at the shooting incident which took place in Yanbu on Saturday, were dragged along the streets. 

 

"The report is absolutely false and baseless," said the official source, while expressing surprise over circulation of such a "fabricated and biased" report, SPA said.
