From Times Wire Reports

An antitank grenade was fired into a jail housing members of the Bandidos biker gang, injuring one gang member in his cell. Police said the grenade, fired from a nearby highway, apparently didn’t explode after breaking through the cell window. The injured biker was identified as Paul Bjorn Andersen, who is being held pending trial in connection with an October antitank grenade attack on the Hells Angels compound in Copenhagen. Two people were killed and 19 injured in that attack. Police said several people with ties to the Hells Angels were arrested in connection with the attack on the jail in Koge, 22 miles southwest of Copenhagen. The Hells Angels and Bandidos gangs have been feuding for three years in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. The feud has left 10 people dead and more than 50 injured.
