Surprised this hasn't already been posted...

A freelance cameraman working for the BBC was killed and their security 'expert' (an Arabic speaking ex-Army officer) Frank Gardner was critically wounded in an attack in a Riyadh subburb.

Gardner is in intensive care following extensive abdominal surgery.

Were they on to something?
