Shots fired at RI diplomat

KUWAIT: A gunman fired shots on Saturday at an Indonesian diplomatic car in Kuwait carrying a family, but there were no casualties, a diplomat and a security source said.

"One of our embassy staff, who is an economic adviser, was driving in his car with his wife this morning and another car shot at him," an Indonesian diplomat told Reuters. He said no one was hurt in the shooting.

The security source said a suspect, a Kuwaiti man in his 30s, was held and being questioned.

A source originally reported the car was a Philippine diplomatic vehicle but later said the car belonged to Indonesian officials in Kuwait. -- Reuters
