Danish police arrested a fourth man on Thursday for being involved in the Copenhagen shootings in mid-February.
The suspect has been charged with involvement in the twin shootings that led to the deaths of two men in Copenhagen, Xinhua news agency reported citing police.
The arrest was made in the course of a large-scale operation where police searched eight Copenhagen apartments for new leads to the attacks.
The police, however, did not disclose more information about the latest arrest.
Three people have already been taken into custody in the case for having assisted the alleged perpetrator Omar Abdel Hamid El-Hussein.
The attacks by Hamid El-Hussein at a debate event in front of a cultural centre on February 14 and at a synagogue on February 15 left two people dead. The gunman was shot dead by police later in the day.
The fourth man arrested will attend a preliminary hearing on Friday.
