Gunmen kill Egypt guard in Mansoura

Gunmen have killed a policeman guarding the house of a judge in the city of Mansoura.

According to AFP, Sergeant Abdallah Metwally was shot to death as he was riding his motorcycle in a Mansoura neighborhood on Friday.
The judge, whose name was not mentioned in the report, is working on the case of ousted president, Mohamed Morsi, whose jailbreak trial was postponed on February 24.
Brigadier General el-Saeed Omara said the gunmen who opened fire on Metwally were also riding a motorbike.
The former Egyptian president, along with 130 other defendants, has been charged with organizing jailbreaks and attacks on police stations during the 2011 Egyptian revolution against former dictator Hosni Mubarak.
