Powerful blast hits tax office in Copenhagen
Wednesday, 7th August 2019

Danish police said on Wednesday that a blast that damaged the Danish Tax Agency’s office in Copenhagen late on Tuesday was an “attack” but it was too early to know who was responsible.
The cause of the blast, which occurred around 10:00 pm (20.00 GMT) at the agency's headquarters in the capital's Osterbro district, was not immediately known, Copenhagen police said.
But they were considering it as a possible criminal act.
“We take this very seriously and already last night established a broad and comprehensive investigation. We cannot and will not accept an attack like this,” Chief Police Inspector Jorgen Bergen Skov said.
"It is too early to say now who is behind the explosion," Skov said in the statement.
Investigators and bomb sniffer dogs were at the scene on Wednesday, police said.
Danish Tax Minister Morten Bodskov told the Ritzau news agency it was "pretty obvious the facade has been blown up" deliberately, calling it a "totally unacceptable act".
"Copenhagen police are conducting an investigation, but if anyone knows anything they should come forward," he said.
