Two people were killed and two injured on Monday after a car fell off the 6th of October Bridge into Abdel Moneim Riyad Square in downtown Cairo.

Lieutenant Colonel Hossam Fathi, head of Cairo's fire department, received a report that said three teachers were in their colleague's car when the driver lost control of the wheel. The car hit the pavement before falling off the bridge and catching fire.

The fire was put out and the bodies retreived, while prosecutors conducted investigations.
