A British man was shot dead Wednesday in a parking lot outside an eastern Riyadh shopping center, a Saudi Interior Ministry official said.

An unidentified Interior Ministry spokesman gave no further details about the victim, who was shot near the Max discount shopping center in the eastern districts of the Saudi capital.

Earlier, Saudi-owned TV station Al-Arabiya said the man was shot dead with four bullets while in the shopping center's car park.

Police ringed the area looking for whoever was behind the killing as an ambulance removed the victim's body.

The motive for the killing was not immediately known.
