    Up to 20,000 in Copenhagen vigil for Paris attack victims

    Up to 20,000 people, among them Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen, gathered for a candlelight vigil at the gates of the French embassy in Copenhagen Sunday to mourn the victims of the Paris attacks, police said.

    AFP reports that Denmark too has suffered attacks by radical Islamists. In February, extremists killed a Danish filmmaker outside a cultural centre and opened fire at a synagogue, killing a Jewish man.
