Police are investigating two incidents in which cars were hit by possible stones thrown from a bridge over the Amager Motorway as deliberate acts.
A car was struck shortly after 1:10 a.m. on Sunday near the exit for Avedøre Holme. Another vehicle was hit at 10:29 p.m. on Wednesday while driving past the same motorway bridge.
No one was injured. One vehicle sustained superficial damage, while the other had its windshield broken. Copenhagen West Police appealed on Thursday for people who had seen anything suspicious near the area before the incidents or heard anyone boast about them.
Several witnesses have since contacted police, the force said on Friday. Investigators did not disclose what those witnesses had told them, but said they still wanted to hear from anyone with information.
