A Saudi school boy was killed when he was knocked over by a speeding car just as he headed for his father who was waiting for him in his car outside the school.

The boy in the secondary class has just finished mid-term examinations and was leaving the school building to his father’s car parked near the gate.

“As he crossed the road, a speeding car hit him…he died instantly before the eyes of his shocked father and to the horror of passers-by,” Sabq Arabic language daily said in a report from the Western Red Sea port of Jeddah.
