Danish man arrested for planning terror attacks, authorities say

Officials in Denmark arrested a man they said was plotting terror attacks with a “militant Islamic motive.”

Danish police carried out a raid on Thursday and arrested the man, who has not yet been publicly identified, according to the New York Times. Flemming Drejer, the operative head of Denmark’s Security and Intelligence Service, said after the arrest that the suspect had been attempting to secure weapons and equipment to follow through with “one or several” terrorist attacks.
