Dahshur: Looting the Copts’ properties, police uses tear gas to save church

 After hundreds of Muslims of Dahshur village in Giza yesterday had escorted Moaaz Ahmed, the young Muslim man who died of burns in a fight between Muslims and Christians in the village, to grave, they have looted the houses of the Copts and attempted to attack the church of the village.

A source told Copts United that police have used tear gas to save the church, and many Muslims have protected the houses of Christians in the village from being attacked.
