Tรธnder also recorded intense rain, with 20.8 millimeters in half an hour. Danish authorities define a cloudburst as more than 15 millimeters in 30 minutes, equivalent to 15 liters per square meter.

A 28-year-old man, Duncan Almquist, received 10 years in prison after admitting that he acted as a controller during the March transport of 38.5 kilograms of cocaine from Hvidovre to Brรธnshรธj. He did not handle the drugs, but followed a courier in a support vehicle and watched for police. Almquist, who was training as a plumber, said he took part because he used cocaine, which he described as an expensive drug.
