A five-year-old Arab pupil was found dead in his school bus at the end of the day in Saudi Arabia after he was apparently forgotten by the bus driver.

The driver has just got behind the wheel to take the pupils back home at the end of the school day when he noticed a boy lying motionless on the seat.

Police in the Western Red Sea port of Jeddah said they arrested the driver while the body was taken to the coroner to determine the causes of death.
