In a heroic rescue that went viral on Arab Twitter earlier this week, two Saudi policemen saved a man who was about to die after he lost his tracks in the desert, Akhbaar 24 news site reported.
The man was driving his car in the area when it got stuck in the sand. He then left the vehicle in an attempt to find help nearby but lost his way.
The two security men - now identified as Mohammad Al Waely and Makhbout Al Buraiki - coincidentally came across him while cruising in the area.
