Police in Copenhagen believe they killed the man behind two attacks that killed two people, one at cafe and another outside of a synagogue.
As we reported earlier, a gunman sprayed bullets at about 4 p.m. into a cafe Saturday, where Swedish artist Lars Vilks, who has been threatened over his 2007 caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad, was attending a free-speech meeting. One man was killed in the cafe attack and three police officers were wounded.
Danish police said the gunmen fired at least 40 rounds through the windows of the Krudttoenden cultural center with an automatic weapon. The BBC has obtained audio of the moment the shots were fired. You can hear it here.
Another shooting occurred outside the city's main synagogue just after midnight on Sunday. A man was shot in the head in the second attack, and later died, and two officers were wounded.

It looks like the attack in Copenhagen is being treated as a terrorist attack similar to the Charlie Hebdo shooting in France.
