Danish police say a bomb explosion has destroyed a car, killing one person outside a hospital in Glostrup. Officials did not say whether the vehicle had been booby-trapped, or whether the explosion was caused by the occupant, nor did they give any details about the victim. The vehicle was parked outside the hospital chapel.

| #6 Banditos is a good restraunt in Fort Wayne. Why would there be Banditos in Denmark. After leaning in one of yesterday's rants that John Glenn is a Mexican immigrant, I am beginning to get paranoid. Do the Mexicans have their eyes on Europe after thay have recaptured California? |

| #4 Danish cops have a new theory: Members of a Danish biker gang were being hunted today after a former member was blown up in his car as he drove to a hospital appointment in a Copenhagen suburb. Police said a bomb was slipped under Mickey Borgfjord Larsenâs car as he parked outside the County Hospital in Glostrup. Chief Constable Joern Bro said the explosion destroyed the car and hurled pieces of wreckage, and body parts, dozens of yards around the blast area. He said Larsen was being hunted by other members of the Bandidos gang because he left the group. âIt was a very violent explosion,â he said. âSeveral kilograms of explosive were used.â Larsen, a convicted kidnapper, had driven to the hospital for weekly physical therapy from a nearby halfway house where he was finishing an eight-year sentence for kidnapping, violence, threats and the theft of six million cigarettes. Police quickly ruled out terrorism because a doctor who knew the 32-year-old man identified Larsenâs remains. "Yup, that's his ear." âWe quickly knew it was related to the biker world so we decided not to evacuate the whole hospital,â Bro said. âWe knew that the bomb was targeting him.â Larsen had been in âbad standingâ with the Bandidos for leaving the group in 2001. âThat means that he is hunted game for people in biker circles,â Bro said. âHe was very unpopular and had many enemies.â You really, really don't want the Bandidos pissed off at you. |

| #2 Police and hospital officials declined to comment on a report by television channel DR-1 that the victim was a former patient who had threatened a doctor. DR-1 reporter Jan Waldau was at the hospital for personal reasons at the time of the explosion. DR-1 reported that after the blast Mr Waldau overheard a doctor speaking to police about the threat. Other reports say the police are looking at possible suicide or a "work accident", the bomb went off as the guy was getting ready to bring it into the hospital. |
