A screenshot captured from a video clip shows a 14-year-old boy dancing to the Macarena at an intersection in the Red Sea city of Jiddah. DUBAI - Saudi police arrested a 14-year-old boy who was filmed dancing to Macarena at an intersection in the Red Sea city of Jiddah, according to local media reports on Wednesday. Western music and dancing is taboo in Saudi Arabia, but such incidents in the past have not necessarily led to lengthy imprisonment or serious punishment. The young man may be asked to sign a police form vowing to not disrupt traffic again. Saudi King Salman and US President Donald Trump were filmed taking part in a traditional all-male Saudi sword dance in May when the president visited the kingdom to boost ties.
