The office of a German newspaper that printed Charlie Hebdo cartoons was the target of an arson attack early this morning.
Vandals
threw rocks at the headquarters of the Hamburg Morgenpost (MOPO), which
reprinted cartoons from the satirical magazine at the centre of the
terrorist attacks in Paris last week.
Two
men who were 'behaving suspiciously' in the area have been arrested by
police and German state security have begun an investigation.
