Egyptian policeman killed in drive-by shooting outside Helwan's Wax Museum
2015-07-01
[Al Ahram] A policeman was killed when gunnies in a car opened fire on the coppers guarding the Wax Museum in Cairo's Helwan suburb on Tuesday, an interior ministry source told state news agency MENA.

The coppers shot back at the gunnies, who bravely ran away.

In Beni Suef, also on Tuesday, a person lost their hand when the bomb they were carrying detonated, before fleeing the scene of the incident, according to MENA.
...leaving his hand behind them -- somewhat like Little Bo Peep's sheep, though of course completely different and deservedly much more painful.
In recent months, dozens of small bombs have been planted around Egypt, targeting security personnel as well as infrastructure like electricity pylons.
