ElBaradei attacked at voting station

Cairo, March 19, 2011

A crowd of people blocked Mohamed ElBaradei from entering a polling station in Cairo on Saturday to cast a vote in Egypt's constitutional referendum, shoving him and smashing his car window with rocks as he left.

'We don't want you, we don't want you,' a crowd of youths chanted at ElBaradei, who has said he wants to run for president.

He was shoved after joining a queue of people seeking to vote. He then went back to his car and stones were hurled.-Reuters
