“I am heartbroken with the people of Copenhagen. I love this city. The people are so warm and full of love. I am devastated for the victims, their families and all who are suffering,”
the former One Direction member wrote on Twitter.

Senior Police Inspector Soren Thomassen said on Monday July 4 that there was no indication the shooting was an

Nevertheless, he said the gunman killed two 17-year-old teenagers (a man and a woman), as well as a 47-year-old Russian citizen living in Denmark.
