Report: Norwegian Police Arrest Man For Plotting To Kill Danish Cartoons Artist Kurt Westergaard
Here's a succinct write-up about Danish Cartoons caricaturist and surprising post-Controversy public figure Kurt Westergaard recently cutting short a trip to Norway due to intelligence he received about an imminent assassination attempt.
That article -- and not many others, frankly -- has Norwegian police subsequently arresting a 30-year-old man and charging him with planning the assault, which was to include the use of automatic weapons. The 76-year-old Westergaard was in Oslo when he received the information, and departed the country on Monday. He had planned to attend a book signing on Tuesday. Initial reports since all-but-debunked by the cartoonist say that he had to return home because of a heart attack.
