Two Israelis were wounded today in a shooting incident in the Rosengardscentret in Odense [Denmark] on the island of Funen just after 3 p.m., according to police. Police said the nationality of the perpetrator was uncertain, although he was said to be a foreigner.
One of the victims was hit in the arm, the other was wounded in the leg, according to reports. Both were taken to hospital, but police were unable to provide information on their condition.
Eyewitnesses told bt.dk that the perpetrator arrived in a hairdresser’s salon owned by one of the Israelis. He was said by eyewitnesses to have shouted something ‘in a Middle-Eastern language’ after which he began shooting.
One of the Israelis was said to have tried to flee, while the other threw a stool at the man. Both, however, were hit.
The police spokesman said that six bullets had been fired.

This is usually where I’d write something like “on the plus side this was probably just over exuberant anti-Zionism and had nothing to do with anti-Semitism.” But we’re talking about a country where “Jews are Allah’s enemies” is a popular protest chant, so there might actually have been a little bit of anti-Semitism involved.
Complete with video of said chant.
