Man stabs friend during card game

A Saudi man stabbed his friend after a heated argument during a card game at his house in the Gulf Kingdom, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Two other friends tried to calm the Saudi down but he rushed to the kitchen and lunged at his friend, the Arabic language daily ‘Sada’ said.

“He stabbed his friend in the chest and leg before he was brought under control and handed over to the police,” it said in a report from the Southern Jazan province.
