SUEZ, Egypt Jan 28 (Reuters) - Egyptians carried the body of a protester through Suez on Friday after clashes with police who withdrew from central areas of the eastern city leaving some main streets to demonstrators, a Reuters witness said.

"They have killed my brother," shouted one of the demonstrators.

Protesters named him as Hamada Labib, 30, a driver. They blamed his death on a gunshot.

Egyptian police abandoned central areas of the industrial port city after demonstrations in which thousands of protesters overwhelmed security lines and torched a police station, a Reuters witness said.
