CAIRO, Egypt (AP) -- One person is dead and more than a dozen others wounded in attacks on worshipers today at three Coptic Christian churches in Egypt.
The simultaneous assaults in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria were carried out during Friday Mass by knife-wielding assailants.
Police have set up checkpoints but the attackers got away.
At least two of 17 people hurt are in serious condition.
Hundreds of Christians have gathered outside the churches and some fighting is reported between them and Muslims.
The attacks came on what is Good Friday to most of the world's Christians. Egypt's Coptic Christians and other followers of the Greek Orthodox church celebrate the holiday a week later.
