One dead as Egypt police storm Tahrir protest

At least one person was killed when Egyptian riot police stormed Cairo's Tahrir Square late Tuesday to disperse stone-throwing protesters, a health ministry official said.

Police backed by armoured vehicles fired tear gas and shots after clashes in the square to scatter protesters who had gathered to mark the anniversary of deadly 2011 demonstrations.



One man was killed when he was struck by birdshot during the clashes, head of emergency services Ahmed al-Ansary told AFP.  It was not immediately clear if he was a protester.

The crowds were marking the anniversary of 2011 protests against the military, which took power between president Hosni Mubarak's overthrow and his now deposed successor Mohamed Morsi's election in June 2012.
