The Saudi Public Security Service announced the arrest of a "woman" for "shooting" a person, without mentioning his name.
Public Security said in a post on Twitter that "Al-Jawf police have arrested a woman for shooting a person."
It added, "Al-Jawf police arrested a woman for shooting a person, who later died of his injury, and she was arrested, and legal measures were taken against her, and she was referred to the Public Prosecution," without giving further details.
The Saudi city of Sakaka, located in the Al-Jawf region, witnessed a shooting incident, in which an Egyptian pharmacist was killed by a Saudi woman.
The Egyptian Minister of State for Immigration and Egyptians Abroad Affairs Nabila Makram confirmed, in an official statement, the follow-up to the legal procedures of the case and the procedures for transferring the body, noting that she communicated with the family of the pharmacist, and offered her condolences.
According to what was reported by Egyptian media, the 34-year-old Egyptian pharmacist, Ahmed Hatem, was working in a pharmacy in the Sakaka area of Al-Jawf Governorate, and he died on Wednesday after a Saudi woman shot him inside the pharmacy where he works.
A number of newspapers circulated news that an altercation broke out between the Egyptian pharmacist and a Saudi woman after he refused to give her an antibiotic that can only be given by prescription, according to the instructions of the Saudi Ministry of Health.
The news added that the Saudi woman then went to her car to get her own pistol, and entered the pharmacy again and fired two bullets at Hatem in the back, ending his life.
