Streets surrounding the court have been cordoned off by police

One person has been shot dead and another wounded in a court building in Copenhagen, Danish police say.

A man reportedly opened fire inside the bailiff's court in the centre of the city. One witness told Danish media that five or six shots were fired.

Police said a man had been arrested and a sawn-off shotgun recovered at the scene.

Streets surrounding the court have been cordoned off. The motive for the shooting was unclear, police said.

A preliminary hearing was taking place in the court when the firing broke out.

A family row may have sparked the attack which took place at about 10:00 (08:00 GMT), Danish media reported.

The head of Copenhagen city court, Soeren Axelsen, said he thought that was the most likely reason for the shooting as the court dealt with family-related cases as well as debts and bankruptcy.

The first victim died at the scene and the second was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries, Danish TV said.

A witness told reporters that the gunman fled the court and was later arrested in a street beside Copenhagen town hall.

Mr Axelsen said counsellors had been brought to the court to help staff deal with the attack.
