At least 68 dead after Egypt soccer match CAIRO - At least 68 people were killed and more than 1,000 injured Wednesday night in one of the deadliest incidents in the country in recent history, according to the Egyptian Health Ministry. Clashes broke out as fans streamed onto the field at a stadium at Port Said at the conclusion of a game between regional teams, the hometown El Masry and Al Ahly, according to news reports and witnesses. The violence raised concerns about deteriorating security in the wake of the revolution in Egypt, which until a year ago was run as a police state. It presented the country's interim military rulers with what is arguably the most serious crisis not directly linked to the revolt. "How come there's a match in Port Said and there's known tension between the two teams" fans and there are 12,000 spectators in the stadium, and yet there is no security," parliament member Mohammad Abu Hamed asked, speaking on state TV. Witnesses said that shortly after the local team won 3-11, fans of the other team streamed onto the field, many heading toward players" locker rooms. Rival fans used sharp objects, rocks and pipes against each other, according to witness accounts and television footage. Star Al Ahly player Mohammad Abu Treika told the team's television station that the national league tournament should be suspended indefinitely in light of the evening's bloodshed. "Crowds are dying in front of us and there aren't any police or security forces," he said. The country's military leaders have ordered that air force aircraft be deployed to transfer the wounded to medical facilities. Egypt's newly sworn parliament intends to hold an emergency hearing Thursday to address the violence.
