CAIRO, May 15 (Aswat Masriya) Violent clashes left one person killed and 20 stores destroyed in Cairo's Ezbet Nakhl district on Wednesday night, said the state-owned news agency.  

Confrontations erupted between the "Muslim Brotherhood" and residents of the area, which stopped the metro's movement for half an hour, according to MENA.

The entrance to the metro station was also shattered during the clashes.

Security forces intensified their presence in the area on Thursday to ensure that the clashes will not be renewed.
