a joy rider accused of causing the deaths

a joy rider accused of causing the deaths of two onlookers during one of his stunts has been sentenced to death by a court in Unaizah after a protracted trial, a local newspaper reported on its Web edition.
Col. Fahd Al-Habdan, spokesman of Al-Qassim police, said the unemployed Saudi in his 30s had invited his fans to the Unaizah governorate through his website named Mutannish to witness him in action. The officer said the man had rented a car from a rental company in Riyadh region and had prepared meals for his fans.
While performing the stunt, the man knocked down a youth who fell on another onlooker. Both died on the spot after the joy rider fled from the scene without providing help to the victims, Al-Riyadh Online quoted the official as saying.
The stunt-driver remained in hiding until his arrest.
The man was arraigned after extensive investigations and the court sentenced him to beheading by sword after a long trial.
