Two die of thirst after car stuck in desert

Two Saudi men died of thirst in the scorching desert heat after their car got stuck in the sand while on their way back home in the Gulf Kingdom.

The two were returning from a trip to another city in Western Saudi Arabia when their vehicle was caught in the desert sand.

“They decided to stay in the car to avert the sun shine. They were later found dead by police units searching for them as they had no water,” Ajel daily said.
