Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen says she feels “saddened and shaken” but “fine” after being attacked in the street in Copenhagen.
Ms Frederiksen is said to have experienced minor whiplash after a man walked up to her and struck her in Copenhagen’s old town on Friday evening.
A 39-year-old Polish man, who was arrested, appeared at the Court of Frederiksberg for a preliminary hearing on Saturday.
He was charged with violence against a person in public service, and denies guilt, local media reported.
The BBC article doesn’t read as hyperbolic about the incident at all really to me. Seems pretty balanced for what occurred, which would be alarming and unsettling to anyone.
