RIYADH—Saudi Arabia says a militant attack on a security patrol killed an officer and wounded five others in a city that has been a flashpoint of anti-government unrest among minority Shiites.
Interior Ministry spokesman Maj. Gen. Mansour al-Turki says the security patrol was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade Monday evening in the eastern city of al-Awamiya.
