Saudi Shootout Snags Suspects
Security forces arrested several suspected militants who attacked them Monday in the town of Buraida, a fundamentalist stronghold in the kingdom, government officials said. The shootout began just before 2 p.m., according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity. Helicopters assisted, they said. Several suspected militants fired from a car at security forces, who overpowered and arrested them, the officials said.
| "You'll never take me alive.........oh shit, they did." |
They said the attackers' car was the same one used in an attack on security forces in Buraida last week.
| Hell, the dumbest gangbanger in South Central coulda told em to dump that ride. |
Four wanted militants and two police officers were killed in that confrontation.
| The friends of the dead cops will be wanting to discuss that shootout with the guys bagged today. Unless, of course, they have "connections". |
Buraida is 210 miles northwest of Riyadh, the capital. The area gave birth to Wahhabism - the doctrine that the Saudi royal family embraced long ago as a trade-off for wielding absolute power.
