Turkish man arrested in Denmark over terror suspicion

Three men, including one Turk, have been arrested in Copenhagen on suspicion of plotting a terror attack after police found them with automatic weapons and ammunition, Denmark's intelligence service said Friday, Hurriyet Daily News reports.

The Security and Intelligence Service, or PET, said the men were arrested in two separate sites in the Danish capital in connection with an ongoing terror investigation.

Aside from facing preliminary charges of possessing illegal firearms, PET said they are "suspected of having been in the process of preparing a terrorist act." The agency did not give any details about the target.

"The investigation will establish whether possible terror threats have been addressed and averted by the arrests," the agency said in a statement.
