Maid stabs female employer, bites old dad

An Ethiopian housemaid stabbed her Saudi female employer in the back and bit the woman’s 90-year-old father in the leg when he tried to protect his daughter.

The Saudi woman, a school teacher, has just gone into the kitchen at her house in the northwestern Saudi town of Hail when the maid attacked her with a knife.

“The teacher resisted the attack but was wounded in the back…her 90-year-old father, who tried to protect her was bitten in the leg by the maid,” Sabq daily said.

It said a neighbor who heard the noise ran into the house and managed to overpower the maid before calling the police.
