Gunmen open fire at Egyptian Christian wedding
2013-10-21
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] At least three people were killed and nine maimed in Egypt's capital when gunnies shot up a Coptic Christian wedding ceremony on Sunday evening, according to Egypt's interior ministry.
Nobody's called for Dire Revenge® for the Blood of Christians yet. Still.
Witnesses said that unidentified gunnies were riding a cycle of violence as they opened fire on a group of people as they exited a church located in Cairo's Al-Warak neighborhood.

It was not immediately clear if all casualties were Christians.

An eight-year-old girl, a woman and a man were killed in the attack, the health ministry said.
