Saudi TV: Suspect Nabbed in Attack on Americans

Aired January 22, 2003 - 17:27   ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

WOLF BLITZER, CNN ANCHOR: We have some breaking news we want to report right now. Saudi Arabian television is reporting the arrest of a man who says he carried out yesterday's attack on two Americans in Kuwait. That attack, of course, killed one of those Americans and injured the other.
The Saudi report says the suspect, a Kuwaiti man, was arrested trying to sneak into Saudi Arabia from Kuwait and he later admitted to the attack. Saudi TV says the suspect will be sent back to Kuwait for legal proceedings.

The two Americans who were attacked, both civilian contractors for the U.S. military, one was killed. The other was wounded. We're going to continue to follow that story, just coming, just breaking out of Saudi Arabia right now.
