A group of people blocked a police vehicle and helped three people who had been arrested escape, a source at the Interior Ministry’s media center said Sunday evening.
The group attacked the Moqattam Police Station vehicle and the officers inside it on the 6th of October Bridge in Abdel Moneim Riad Square, close to Tahrir Square. The group then helped the suspects escape, and drove the vehicle to Tahrir and set the vehicle on fire.
The ministry called on political groups and protesters in Tahrir to demonstrate peacefully and avoid resorting to violence to ensure the safety of public and private property.
