A prominent bodyguard of King Salman of Saudi Arabia was shot dead in what authorities described as a personal dispute, state television reported on Sunday, offering few details about an incident that shocked the kingdom.<\/p>\n

Tributes came through social media for Major General Abdulaziz al-Fagham, and many included bodyguard images at work. One included him crouching down to seemingly help tie King Salman's shoes, the 83-year-old ruler of the oil-rich kingdom.<\/p>\n

Others show al-Fagham in the background of events with King Salman and his predecessor, the late King Abdullah.<\/p>\n

\n<\/figure>\n

A statement of a phrase published by state television on Twitter identified al-Fagham as "the bodyguard of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques," the honorific given to Saudi kings.<\/p>\n

There was no more information published on state television. <\/p>\n

Hours later, the state Saudi press agency<\/em> He said the dispute saw a friend of al-Fagham shoot and kill him, as well as injuring another Saudi and a Filipino worker there. A shooting broke out when the security forces responded to the house where the murdered shooter was seen and five members of the security forces injured, the news agency reported.<\/p>\n

The newspaper Okaz<\/em>, although he did not offer details about the shooting that led to his death, he described al-Fagham in a headline as "The Guardian of the Kings."<\/p>\n

Officials in the kingdom did not immediately respond to requests for comments from The Associated Press<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/pre>\n<\/pre>\n
