A new unbelievable video, a deappraised video, claimed to have beheaded more than a dozen christian. Now, they discuss the case chaos in yemen, where the entire u. S. Embassy staff and u. S. Marines were evacuated earlier this week. First, we are following the breaks news at this hour. Twin terror attacks in denmark, which may have been inspired by last morchts deadly attacks in paris. These incredible new pictures revealing the moment the Danish Police gunned down the terror suspect. This is the body of the man believed to be behind both attacks in copenhagen. These bullet holes a horrifying sign of what happened inside this cafe where denmarks day of terror began. A crowd had gathered there for a Free Speech Forum with a cartoonist on al qaedas hit list when the gunman opened fire. Um i realized that every time we talk about activity of those people there will be always yes, it is freedom of speech but and the turning point is but. Why do we still say but when we [ gunfire ] just imagine being in there, and hearing that happen. Absolute chaos in the middle of the day. One person was killed in that attack. Three officers were wounded, but it seems his deadly rampage had just begun. Ten hours after that its believed the same man, the same gunman made his way, possibly by taxi to a nearby jewish synagogue, approaching two officers there, spraying them with bullets, their lives thankfully were spared a bystander, though was killed. The similarity between these attacks and what happened in paris are incredibly disturbing. In denmark, the target believe to be swedish cartoonist who in 2007 drew the Prophet Muhammad as a dog, an animal that some conservative muslims consider unclean. Then the antisemitic element to all of this in both in paris the target was a Kosher Grocery store, in denmark a synagogue. Nic robertson joins us in colin hagen. I know youve been on top of this story since it broke yesterday. What can you tell us about what police are saying about the similarities between what happened there and in paris . Reporter what the police are saying is they believe the young man, the man they killed on the streets behind me may have been influenced by the events in paris, 9 attack on Charlie Hebdo cartoonists, and the attack in the supermarket. They say he may have been inspired by what they called radical isis propaganda but theyre also saying this is a young man who seems to have a troubled past. They say he is 22 years old, he was born here in denmark, that in fact he had connections with connections with gangs, that he had a violent past a criminal record, and some of his criminality activities involved illegally having weapons. So the picture that the police are painting here at the moment is a young man with a violent track record who has weapons, but also who may have been radicalized by online prop ganta, poppy. We know they are not naming him yesterday, so i wonder if you know why that is. Reporter what the police have said is they remain concerned about the possibility of an accomplice. They say the attacks yesterday were perpetrated by just the one man, the suspect gunman who was shot here. They believe he was the only person involved in those attacks, but theyre concerned they say he may have an accomplice or theyre also worried about the possibility of a copycat type of attack. So the operations continue as they try to gather more information about him. It does seem at the moment that perhaps one of the Reasons Police are not publicly naming the man so far, though there is a lot of speculation in local media about who he is certain suggestions and photographs have been published, but the police themselves arent naming him, potentially because theyre still trying to gather more information, potentially trying to find more people connected to him, if they exist, poppy. Do we know at this point in time nic, or do you believe its too soon to say if theres any True Connection to al qaeda or isis . Its one thing, i think, to be inspired by say, something that happened in paris, its another thing to be trained by them or radicalized online. You know the First Impression of this at the moments are thats not the case that he isnt something who has gone to iraq or syria to train with isis. That said its the concern with that that the police is continuing investigation and continuing heightened security the sore of broader worry this mass not be over. It will be because of of connections, but at the moment it does seem perhaps this man was just acting alone and perhaps didnt have strong connections to any tick lard group, but perhaps as the police say, just inspired by them in some way to act. Pop, . Nic robertson, thank you very much for your reporting. We appreciate it. It is believed the gunmans primary tart was swedish artist lars vilks. No stranger to threats, he has survived two previous attempts on his life for his controversial cartoons. Al qaeda even put him on their most wanted poster in 2007. Since then he travels with bodyguards. He just spoke with cnn about the deadly attack that almost took his life. Ive been having the problem since 2007 and ive been to several instance. This one was the worst, because ive never been to shots before. I have to say, the protection was, i mean good in one way even if the Police Protection could have been better they didnt really count on the strength of the terrorists machine gun. He had equipment which was very surprising for them. They had some difficulty in striking back. While lars vilks eskein gunfire, his security detail did not, one of them shot. Thank you for being here sir. I appreciate it. Happy to be here thank you. One of bodyguards protecting lars vilks is someone who worked in your security detail when you were in your position there. Do you have any sense on how hes doing at this hour . Yes, poppy, the danes have a very topnotch security detail similar to our secret service. The detail that protection the u. S. Ambassador also was protecting mr. Vilks in this case yesterday. The head of that detail was one of those shot not fatally, thank goodness shot seriously. He was operated on last night, and ive texted with him today, hes okay. But that just demonstrates the danes were aware of this threat they were prepared for the threat. If not for the expertise and the response of the danish secret service, we could have had a situation in copenhagen much like paris. As lars vilks said the perpetrators of this crime werent prepared expecting the response they got from the danish protective force. Im glad to hear he is doing all right. A tragedy, though stilled with two lives claimed and a new better of people injured. Lars vilks did tell cnn that it appeared that the police were outgunned by the attack. Im wondering if you think the bodyguards and police were adequately armed. Tip dale in denmark as mo of scandinavia, the police would not carry heavy weapon only a sidearm. Frankly many of the policemen dont carry sidearms so in the case of guarding the ambassadors or the Prime Minister or the cartoonist who drew the cartoons the Prophet Muhammad in 2005 in denmark or mr. Vilks, the detail would probably be a couple men with only light sidearms. If the perpetrator, the terrorist showed up with automatic weapon which weve been told they would have not had on their immediate persons weapons as strong as he had, though they would have been in their vehicles parked close by. So very quickly, do you think that we should see security detail the police, carrying stronger weapons . Well absolutely in situations like this. Look the danes have been prepared for this kind of attack since 2005 when the cartoonist published his cartoons in 2005. Even when i was in denmark there were five different plots, and the danes have taken that threat very seriously, just as we must in the west and in america. So weve got to be prepared for this type of attack poppy, wherever episodes like a rally for someone whos published cartoons offensive to extremist elements is going to take place. So i would say yes, weve got to make sure our Law Enforcement and intel jensz services are adequately prepared to the type of attacks we have now seen in paris, copenhagen sweden netherlands, and uk and other places around the word. Ambassador thank you very much. Please stay with me. Denmark is a small country with a big bullseye on it for jihadists. Was an attack like this only a matter of time . Thats ahead. Also a gruesome troubling new video from isis, the beheading of more than a dozen christians chilling evidence that isis may be expanding its reach far beyond the borders of iraq and syria.

A deadly day in denmark, raising some serious questions about free speech and the future of an artistic media that some find offensive. A gunman opened fire outside a synagogue yesterday after targeting a Free Speech Forum. An artist known for cartoon depickses of muhammad was inside. The former ambassador is with me. Where do you stand on cartoons that some find offensive, versus the right of free speech and expression around the globe . You know poppy, thats an interesting question. We of course confronted that issue head on in late 2005 which denmark, there to forehad been seen a fantasy land the home of Hans Christian andersen lego and a queen that everybody loves, published cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad and then found itself under attack. When the attack started, we as the American Embassy had to play a role and to try to try to stand up for free speech and the freedom of the press while at the same time trying to quell the violence calm the violence and act, if you would, as mediators. The issue which for us erupted almost ten years ago now on the streets of copenhagen which has now come back again in the incident yesterday brings to the forefront this question of how can we in the west with our fundamental belief and the freedom of speech how do we balance that with the closely held sincere religious beliefs that some have and its not just extremists but muslims throughout the world, have right, thats offensive when you depict the Prophet Muhammad. So you know we in the u. S. Understand that sincere religious beliefs are things that you dont go out of your way to insult but i will tell you that not everybody in the world necessarily has that balance, and thats the challenge that we face now in the west. Am bats do recall let me ask you this in the wake of the paris attacks, so many people held signs, wore testifyshirr, and social media, clearly supporting this. What they stand for ultimately is free speech. There have been cartoonists who frankly have done the same thing, Charlie Hebdo, and this artist lars vilks havent just criticized muhammad other religions have been depicted in these ways. Where where do you stand on that . Have you saying that images like this that are offensive to some should not be put out . No no im not, poppy. I would point out theres a reason that major newspapers in america, colleague your own network, have not reprinted the cartoons that appeared in denmark nine years ago or that lars vilks drew five years ago in sweden. The reason we havent is weve learned in america to balance the protection and love the free speech with respect for the beliefs and the background and ethnicities and race and creeds of others. There are in americas you know words we dont say, racial expressions we dont use. Theres the concept of hate speech in america. That balance that we have struck in america, for reasons of civility and peace and harmony is really whats at stake now in this in what we see around the world in these muss lipidor muhammad cartoons. We have to stand up for the fundamental belief in free speech but we have to be vigilant. We know in the muslim faith whether we print cartoons were not just angering you know 5,000 extremists ben on jihad, were angering a billion people around the world. We have to be prepared for the consequences and thank goodness in denmark they were prepared for that which is why we dont have a Charlie Hebdo situation in copenhagen now. We have unfortunately two who were victims, but it could have been so much worse. A very important point, this is not just something that angers extremists it offends other muslims as well. Before we go quickly, sir, do you think we are seeing a change in the tide here in terms of isis expanding far beyond iraq and syria, given we do not know if this was tied to isis but given the targets, ver very concerned about what were seeing happened across western europe . Yes, very concerned, not just across western europe but across the seas to north america. We know whats appearing in denmark, in paris, in the uk and my only concern is whether were facing it at home and im concerned perhaps some of our leaders arent willing to face it arent willing to admit we have global jihad that we have to be prepared for hoar in washington. Ambassador thank you for coming on. Nice to be with you, poppy. To turn to the ugly weather to start out yet another week. Its already brutal in the midwest. Look at chicago, three dozen cars in a Chain Reaction accident. Dozens had to go to the hospital. Can this decadent, fruit topped pastry. With indulgent streusel crumble, be from. Fiber one. Fiber one streusel. More horrible winter weather. A blizzard warning still in effect for eastern massachusetts, even though the storm is on its way out. It is leaving a powerful set of wind behind along with bitterly cold temperature. But further south, another big air of concern. A big storm about to hit arkansas, tennessee, kentucky and the carolinas. Tom sader joins us. Lets begin with boston. Okay. They have just been unfairly treating taking the brunt of it over and over again. Any sign for folks that this will be the last one . Well i wish there could be some sign but yet again, the storm in the midwest, into the Tennessee Valley could end up in new england, maybe even significant snow for the days ahead. Our problem now, extremely dangerous windchills minus 20 minus 25 minus 30, minus 35. We have around from burning ton to boston to the blue ridge. Coldest air of the season as each air mass to trump the one before it. Lets back up. If you look at the last several storms weve had, january, our greatest snowfall record and records go back to 1872 then a mid latitude one, boston had a couple clippers come out of the canada. Typically to day we should only have 28. 6 inches that have fallen in boston. Not 95. And parts of also rock to memphis, nashville will be in significant snow st. Louis to louisville to cincinnati. The ice will be a problem, maybe half inch of accumulation. This could stop traffic on major roads and major interstates such as 40. Now your heaviest snow is just short of that ice line. Were looking at the accumulations, really into sparse of the entire state of kentucky could see in excess of a foot. This storm is going to drop possibly 5, 6 inches in st. Louis, maybe 4 to 7 in nashville, then into the carolinas, d. C. Baltimore, philadelphia heres the track. Were still watching it closely, stays as rain mainly in the atlanta area though advisories and warnings to the north, but then the snow moves you have for accumulation here. To beginning of tuesday night into wednesday but dangerous windchilling will get even worse, this is extremely dangerous if youre outside with exposed skin for a period of time. No question. Im hoping for my friends in boston they get a bit of a break after this one. Tom, thanks for joining me. Appreciate it. Cape cod and the islands off the massachusetts coast could still he hurricaneforce winds before this system passes. Take a look at the drive from cape ann to seabrook New Hampshire shot by our crews, with will ripley chris boy yet, he joins me will ripley does from seabrook. Theres also been some collapses. Absolutely poppy, it has been a busy day. Not only because of those treacherous roads, that big pileup on i95 outside of boston but also because of the heavy snow has accumulated. Take a look at the result. Here in New Hampshire, at least two roof collapses. This is a strip practical. Poppy, its remarkable, the weight of this snow the brick facade just crumbled. These are real bricks but the sn
