Danish police take security measures around the site where one unidentified civilian was killed and three police officers were wounded after shots were fired shortly before 4 P.M. at a meeting attended by controversial Swedish artist Lars Vilks, known for his depictions of the prophet Muhammad in his cartoons, in the Osterbo area of Copenhagen, Denmark on February 14, 2015. Around 30-40 shots were reportedly fired, as the Swedish artist was attending a debate on the theme of ‘Art, blasphemy and freedom of speech’. One of the two suspected gunmen has been shot dead by the police and their getaway car was found. (Footage by Recep Yasar / Anadolu Agency)
