Worker’s skull broken over ‘dish washing’

An Asian worker broke his colleague’s skull with a stick at a restaurant in Saudi Arabia after they argued about who should wash a dish.

The argument erupted into a fight, in which one worker used a big stick to hit the other on the head, Sabq daily said in a report from the central town of Afif.

“The worker was rushed to hospital unconscious with a broken skull but doctors managed to save his life…the other worker was arrested,” it said.
