A Health Ministry source has told our sister channel Al Jazeera Mubasher that one man has died during tonight's violence in Alexandria.

A local coordinator of the activist April 6 Movement has told Al Jazeera that a man in his twenties was hit by a bullet in his neck down the street from the police headquarters that has been the focal point of protests.

If confirmed, it would be the second death in Egypt's second-largest city since violence began.
