The BBC reports, “Danish police have accused two men of aiding the gunman who killed two people in the weekend attacks in Copenhagen.” Police shot Danish-born Omar el-Hussein, the suspected perpetrator of the dual assault on a synagogue and a debate on free speech. The two newly accused, who remain unnamed, are being charged with assisting el-Hussein and providing and disposing of his weapon. Though el-Hussein had links to a criminal gang, police report no evidence that he was part of a terrorist cell.
