A Saudi man died of thirst in the heart of the desert after one of his car tyres was punctured and he had no replacement, a newspaper in the Gulf Kingdom reported on Thursday. The unnamed man had set off on desert safari hunting trip from his central home town of Alaflaj and was still not back home after three days, the Arabic language daily Okaz said. After an extensive search, police and civil defence found the man dead and his car tyre was flat, the paper added. “The body was found nearly three km away from the car.….apparently he tried to walk back home but died of thirst and hunger,” it quoted police sources as saying.
