The blast, reportedly caused by a car bomb, led to the partial collapse of the building in the city of Mansoura.
 
Interim Prime Minister Hazem Beblawi called it "an act of terrorism".
 
Attacks on Egypt's security forces and police have increased since the army removed Islamist President Mohammed Morsi in July.
 
No group has so far claimed responsibility for Tuesday's blast.
 
Mr Beblawi told satellite channel ONTV: "The state will do its utmost to pursue the criminals who executed, planned and supported that attack."
 
The Muslim Brotherhood - which supports Mr Morsi and has been banned by the interim authorities - condemned the bombing.
 
"Muslim Brotherhood considers this act as a direct attack on the unity of the Egyptian people," it said in a statement.
