An Egyptian school teacher died while giving a lesson to his secondary class students in Saudi Arabia, a newspaper reported on Friday.

Ibrahim Mitwalli, who had worked as mathematics teacher in the northwestern Saudi town of Tabuk, had a heart attack and collapsed in class before the eyes of the shocked school boys, the Arabic language daily Sabq said.

“He was rushed to hospital after falling in class but they were told that he was already dead,” the paper said without specifying the teacher’s age.
