Body of man found in Yogesh Building

PHILIPSBURG--An investigation is currently underway into the death of a man, said to be of Guyanese descent, whose body was found in a stairwell in the Yogesh Commercial Building Sunday morning.

The body of the man, who was known for operating a small, provision stand on the hospital road (Welgelegen Road, Cay Hill), was discovered by a woman worker, in the building, around 11:00am.

Police Spokesman Ricardo Henson told the media that it appeared as if the deceased had suffered some sort of seizure or heart attack and had fallen head first down the stairs. He sustained a deep gash in his head and was found lying in a pool of blood.

However, he noted that a definitive cause of death is still to be determined.

Egypt: One dead in Port Said riots

One person was killed and 18 injured in clashes in the Egyptian city of Port Said. The riots started after supporters of the city's football club, Al-Masry, had learned that their team was suspended for two years. This measure was taken following the death of 74 people on February 1 at the end of a match in the local stadium.

The violent clashes took place Friday night at Port Said. Military police shot in the air trying to disperse hundreds of supporters of the club, who gathered outside the headquarters of the Suez Canal Authority.
