Danish police have arrested a 22-year-old man in connection with a shooting at a Copenhagen shopping centre.
Copenhagen shooting: Danish police cannot rule out terror in mall attack.
The attack follows a deadly shooting in neighbouring Norway last week, in which two people were killed by a lone shooter in the capital Oslo.
The terrorist threat against Denmark is currently assessed to be “serious”, with the biggest threat coming from “militant Islamism”, according to the latest report from the Danish Security and Intelligence Service.
Field’s seen from the south (next to the tall Ferring Building).
Field’s is the second-largest shopping centre in Denmark after Waves and one of the largest in Scandinavia. However, with approximately DKK 2.75 billion in turnover, Steen & Strøm’s Field’s in Ørestad, Copenhagen, has the highest turnover of the Danish malls.
Field’s is located in Ørestad, Copenhagen, close to the E20 motorway and Ørestad station on the Copenhagen Metro. It takes 10 minutes from Ørestad station to the city centre (Kongens Nytorv Station). Alternatively, it takes seven minutes by regional trains on a direct railway link to Copenhagen Central Station.

Yes, thanks for asking. I have not been there for years, but I have been there many times. They have a good parking basement.

There is a cinema in the center and a concert hall across the street, so I guess they have included that in their planes.

Parking on public roads in the center of Copenhagen (around Strøget, Rådhuset, Christiansborg, Tivoli, etc. cost about 4-6 usd/hr I guess. But parking in general is about a few kroner/hr (50 cent) most places I guess. The further out in Copenhagen the cheaper or free it gets. And it’s free outside Copenhagen untill you enter some larger cities, as I remember.

It’s like that here. Small towns don’t often charge because they need you to buy stuff from the Ma and Pa Shoppes, and so forth.

Yeah, and they don’t have more cars than parking spaces. They made driving and parking worse to motivate people to use puplic transport and bikes.

Probably better for the environment. I’m told bikes are a big part of Danish culture, does that mean bikers are polite and orderly? A lot American bicyclists are entitled dinks.

Don’t quote me. I park a mile or so away in a hardware lot and walk everywhere in spots like that.

Yeah, I usually do the same. Places like Fields are made to avoid the center (Strøget, a walking street full of shops, parking hell).

Walkable villages we call them here. I love those. Most old New England towns have them. My favourite to visit is Brunswick.

Oh, yes. The center of all cities are similar to that, but the center of Copenhagen is like that (just bigger) but with added parking and traffic hell!

Yes, taxies seem to attract the worst kind of scum (taxi drivers). They are the same in Copenhagen and New York.
If I have a meeting doing the day, I usually just walk. Even if it takes an hour each way. I know Copenhagen very well and know how to plan the best way with less people.

My parents was a little too old and tired for music like that. They liked gay junkies like Queen, Roling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, etc., but also Danish music like Shu-bi-dua, Kim Larsen, etc. which was still played a lot on radio when I was very young.
