Two unidentified persons riding a “meter” motorcycle killed a child on the main street in the city of Dhamar, then left the area safely without being arrested.

Tribal sources said today that unknown persons on a motorcycle committed a murder against the child Ould Murad Asaad Sawal on Radaa Street in front of a hall in the city of Dhamar.
