Denmark raises terror alert level after hotel blast

None

Denmark raised its terror alert level on Saturday, the ninth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States, after a man set off a small explosion in a Copenhagen hotel on Friday.

 

The suspect was detained by police at a nearby park early on Saturday with injuries to his face and arm from the blast. No one else was hurt. "With an overall assessment of the information, we cannot rule out that preparation for something terror-related has occurred," Chief Police Inspector Jorn Aabye told a news conference. (Reuters)
