Several people were injured in a shooting at a shopping center in the Danish capital Copenhagen on Sunday evening, police said. One person has been arrested. It is unclear if it is the shooter.
The shooting took place in Field’s shopping center. It is one of the largest shopping centers in Denmark and is located between the city center and the airport. Also nearby is the Royal Arena, where a sold-out concert by British singer Harry Styles is scheduled for later in the day.
Local media report that panic broke out when the shots were heard. A large crowd of people would have rushed out afterwards.
On social media, users write that the shooter would have used a semi-automatic rifle. Those reports have not been confirmed by local authorities.
The police are calling on witnesses via Twitter to come forward and advise people who are still in the shopping center to wait for officers.
This message will be updated when more information is known.
