Bomb maker was targeting Mohammed cartoon newspaper

Police in Denmark said a man injured in an explosion at a Copenhagen hotel was preparing a letter bomb, likely intended for a Danish newspaper that published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.

Police spokesman Svend Foldager said the device went off as the man was trying to assemble it in a hotel bathroom on September 10.

Investigators believe the suspect is a Chechen-born boxer living in Belgium, but have not positively confirmed his identity.
