An Islamic Brotherhood member was killed and at least 11 more people were wounded when pro-Morsi marchers clashed with Egyptian security forces in Cairo.

The trouble broke out when Morsi supporters came under attack as they marched towards the interior ministry. Supporters of the interim government hurled stones at the marchers and threw bottles at them from balconies, and the Police fired tear gas to disperse the crowds. 

A security source said seven protesters had been wounded but added that it was not immediately clear who had opened fire.  Some reports said both sides exchanged buckshot.

Meanwhile, quiet reigned at the two pro-Mursi protest camps despite the government's latest demand that protesters end a sit-in that has lasted more than six weeks.
