Danish Police Nab Third Suspect Over Copenhagen Attack

Danish police have arrested a third man suspected of helping a gunman who killed two people in an attack in Copenhagen earlier this month.



The suspect, who has not been named, was arrested Friday morning and will face a custody hearing Saturday, Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet reported.



Two other men accused of helping Omar El-Hussein, who attempted to kill a Danish filmmaker attending a free speech event in Copenhagen on Feb. 14, were ordered to spend another four weeks in custody by a Copenhagen court Thursday.



Omar El-Hussein killed a Jewish security guard outside a synagogue on Feb.15 with a handgun before he was killed in a police shootout later in the day.
