RIYADH, Saudi Arabia - Three Frenchmen were killed Monday and at least one other was injured when they came under fire while traveling in the Saudi Arabian desert north of Medina, a spokesman for the kingdom's Interior Ministry said.

Maj. Gen. Mansour al-Turki said the group of French travelers were resting on the side of a road when gunmen fired at their car, instantly killing two of the men. The third man died later after he was taken to a hospital, and the four Frenchman was in serious condition at an area hospital, al-Turki said.

Women and children also were with the group, who were on a road 10.6 miles north of Medina, but they were uninjured. Saudi authorities were investigating the attack, al-Turki said.
