Danish police are looking for two shooters who opened fire on a Copenhagen cafe on Saturday, in what authorities say was likely a terror attack, The Associated Press reports.
The cafe was hosting a free speech event titled, "Art, blasphemy and the freedom of expression," and the meeting was organized by Swedish artist Lars Vilks, who caricatured the Prophet Muhammad in 2007 and has since been the target of a number of threats.
