Family, maid rescued from car wreck
Muhammad Aal Safiya Okaz BALQARAN Published in The Saudi Gazette on 15 - 04 - 2012

A car carrying a family of six and an African housemaid crashed Friday into a power pole near Sabat Al-Alaya City, 450 kilometers from Makkah.
The accident took place when another vehicle cut in front of the family's car, sending it off the road and into the pole.
The car overturned and the passengers were trapped inside. Rescue teams removed the passengers from the car and rushed them to Sabat Al-Alaya General Hospital where they received the necessary medical treatment.
Civil Defense rescue teams had difficulty reaching the accident site because of the large number of inquisitive drivers who blocked the road by stopping to see what had happened.
