One police officer was killed early Monday when unknown attackers opened fire at a police checkpoint in Haram street, Giza.
A security source told Al-Masry Al-Youm barricades were installed in the district with the hope of catching the shooters.
Deadly attacks on army and police forces have become common since the overthrow of the government of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood, whom authorities blame for plotting the attacks.
