Fourth Frenchman dies after Saudi attack -doctor

RIYADH, Feb 27 (Reuters) A French teenager who was wounded in an attack that killed three Frenchmen in Saudi Arabia on Monday has died, a hospital doctor said today.

''He died from the consequences of his shoulder injury. Part of the bullet was still there. He was bleeding. We carried out an operation but it was no good. He died this morning,'' Metwakkil Hajjaj told Reuters by telephone from Medina.

He said the man was called Mubarak, the son of a French woman of Moroccan origin.

Three French expatriates working in Saudi Arabia were shot dead during a desert trip yesterday in what appeared to be the first militant attack on foreigners in three years.
