Lizard in Saudi Arabian restaurant causes uproar

The unexpected visit of a huge desert lizard at a restaurant caused uproar among diners and waiters and made them run into the street in the city of Al-Rass in Qassim province on Thursday.


The three-kilogram reptile escaped from the wheelbarrow of passing municipality cleaners who had found it at a nearby cemetery, and headed for the restaurant, apparently attracted by the smell of food.

Customers fled the restaurant in panic before a local man seized the lizard. The lizard was later sold at auction for SR30 ($8).
