Perhaps... Having 2 separate species attack in that fashion is most unusual indeed. Crows will eat eggs and chicks but I've never known them to show that type of aggression. Even stranger is the seagull.
Crows and seagulls are both territorial birds. They probably saw the doves as invaders on their turf, which is only the fault of the humans who put them there.
Gulls and crows are quite similar in that they will mob other birds to protect what they feel is their home. Humans put the doves into this situation when they normally would not have been there and probably upset boundaries which caused a reaction.
