On Tuesday, one person was slightly injured in an explosion outside the Danish Tax Agency’s office, in what police said was a deliberate attack.


Police told Reuters it was too early to say whether the two blasts were connected, but could not immediately comment further.


Police were searching for a man running from the scene of the blast, Ekstra Bladet said.


Serious attacks or violence are rare in the small Nordic country of 5.7 million people that prides itself on a reputation for safety and social tolerance.
