Developing: Three shot outside Copenhagen synagogue, police say

One person was shot in the head and two policemen wounded in an attack on a synagogue in central Copenhagen, Danish police said. They stressed that it was too early to say if the incident was connected to an earlier one at an arts cafe. Danish television station TV2 said a large metro and train station nearby, Norreport, was being evacuated. The shooting took place in Krystalgade, a street that is home to Copenhagen’s main synagogue. The news followed a shooting attack earlier Saturday on a cafe which was hosting a debate on freedom of speech and was attended by Swedish artist Lars Vilks, who has received death threats for his cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad. One man died in that attack, and police said a suspect was still at large.

We cannot say anything about the condition of the injured yet.
