Manhunt under way after Copenhagen shootings; PM calls it a terrorist attack
COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Denmark was on high alert and a massive manhunt was under way on Sunday after a man sprayed bullets at a Copenhagen cafe hosting a debate on freedom of speech and blasphemy, killing one person and wounding three police officers.
The meeting attacked on Saturday was attended by Swedish artist Lars Vilks, who has been threatened with death for his cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.
The French ambassador, who was also there, compared the shooting to the deadly January attack on a satirical newspaper in Paris by Islamist militants.
Hours after the cafe attack, shots were fired at a Cophenhagen synagogue. Two police officers were wounded by gunfire and a civilian was shot multiple times in the head. Police and said it was too early to connect that incident with the arts cafe shooting.
