A Saudi prince was arrested Wednesday at a compound near Beverly Hills in connection with an alleged sex crime after a bleeding woman was seen trying to flee the grounds.

Majed Abdulaziz Al-Saud, 28, was arrested on suspicion of forced oral copulation of an adult, according to the Los Angeles Times. Police were called to the gated compound after a caretaker at the home reported the disturbance. The Times, citing jail records, reports Al-Saud was freed on $300,000 bail Thursday afternoon. LAPD officer Drake Madison told the newspaper the suspect was booked after 4 p.m.

Capt. Tina Nieto said the police department has a consul liaison that checks with foreign nations’ consulates regarding a certain person’s diplomatic immunity. Nieto said Al-Saud doesn’t have immunity in this case.

Tennyson Collins, a neighbor, told the Times he saw a bleeding woman trying to scale the property’s 8-foot wall on Wednesday. When Collins returned home from work, police followed his car through the gates and then onto the property. He said officers escorted about 20 people out of the compound, most of them staff members.

Police said Al-Saud was renting the home, which Zillow values at $37 million. Collins said different foreign nationals have been renting out the home for weeks at a time over the past year.

Earlier this month, a Qatari prince, Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad al Thani, was videotaped racing a yellow Ferrari through Beverly Hills at speeds of up to 100 miles per hour, blowing through stop signs and frightening residents. Al Thani later denied driving recklessly and claimed he had diplomatic immunity, Beverly Hills police said. Authorities consulted with the State Department and the Qatar consulate and determined he did not have diplomatic immunity, police Chief Dominick Rivetti said during a Sept. 17 news conference.


Al Thani reportedly flew back to Qatar before he could be arrested.

Why did you post this? It has nothing to do with this conversation. We all know there are creeps everywhere. You could easily find thousands of comparable articles about American assholes.

Saudi Arabia, where women were only legally allowed to drive a car last year, and were declared legally allowed to vote and run for office... this month.

What prompted this comment? I certainly hope nobody is suggesting Saudi Arabia's laws and customs are items we shouldn't be too upset over.

Legally sanctioning the stoning of women for adultery? Public beheadings?

Geezuz.

I don't know what you mean. I think you're misinterpreting my post? My comment is meant as a negative - a reason to think this appointment is totally inappropriate.

I know you're comment was critical of the appointment. It's completely fair. I was just curious as to what prompted you to make it if anything even did?

The fact that Saudi Arabia was appointed the head of the human rights council for the UN. It seems like an odd choice given that they only legalized women voting this month. I'd say they have a loooong way to go before they can head the human rights council, no?

Wasn't Libya the last one in charge of Human Rights at the UN? Shit's a joke.
