Danish police have arrested six men and one woman in connection with an anti-tank rocket fired at a row house in Glostrup, Copenhagen, in late April, DR reports.

The seven suspects, aged 21 to 28, are accused of various roles in the attack. Four men are considered key figures, with two arrested in the Copenhagen area, one in Stockholm, and one in Cologne. Authorities worked with Swedish and German police as well as Europol to make the arrests.

A court hearing is scheduled for Wednesday at 13:15, where prosecutors will seek pre-trial detention for two of the men. The specific charges and their responses remain undisclosed.

The incident occurred on the night of 23 April on Rødkælkevej. No injuries were reported, but the explosion caused significant property damage. Police believe the attack was linked to a conflict within criminal circles.

Investigations are ongoing, and further arrests have not been ruled out, according to Deputy Police Inspector Morten Rosendal.
