Pilgrim kills man in Saudi during shop squabble

A Kuwaiti man visiting Saudi Arabia for the annual Moslem pilgrimage this week killed a Saudi during an argument in Makkah, a newspaper said on Thursday.

The 24-year-old pilgrim was inside a shop in the holy city when an argument erupted with a Saudi man, 25, Sabq said.

“The Kuwaiti said the Saudi man kept harassing him and finally tried to hit him with a juice bottle,” the paper said.

“He told police that he kept trying to avoid him but could not as the Saudi was not normal…he said he clutched the bottle from the Saudi and stabbed him.”
