Egyptian gunmen kill three outside church in Cairo suburb
Gunmen on a motorcycle fired on Egyptian wedding guests outside a Coptic Christian church in a Cairo suburb on Sunday night, killing three people, security sources said.
The masked assailants shot randomly at the people as they left the church, the sources said. It was not immediately clear if those killed were Christians, they said.
State news agency MENA reported that one of the dead was an eight-year-old child.
A Coptic priest at the wedding told Reuters he was inside the church when gunfire broke out. Thomas Daoud Ibrahim said he rushed outside to find a dead man, a dead woman, and "many injured."
Coptic Christians make up 10 percent of Egypt's 85 million people, and have generally coexisted peacefully with majority Sunni Muslims for centuries, despite bouts of sectarian tension.
But the army's overthrow of elected Islamist President Mohamed Morsy on 3 July has been followed by the worst attacks on churches and Christian properties in years.
The immediate trigger for the attacks was a bloody security crackdown in Cairo on 14 August, when police dispersed two Islamist protest camps set up to demand the reinstatement of Morsy, and killed hundreds of his supporters.
