Saudi security forces captured several suspects outside the urban region in Oneida on Tuesday evening while they tried to flee aboard a car, an official source at the Saudi Interior Ministry told SPA on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, when the security men started to evacuate the house, where the suspects were hiding, one of their supporting forces, stationing outside the scene, was attacked by fire. The security men returned fire and captured five persons, two of them were members of the "deviant group" who were wanted by Saudi authorities.
Exchange of fire between the security men and the armed suspects led to the killing of one of the security men and the injury of eight others, SPA added.
When the house was searched, machine guns, pistols, pipe bombs and various ammunitions in addition to computer sets, various documents and a sum of SR 38,000 were found. (albawaba.com)
