COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Gangs of rioters set fire to cars and garbage trucks in northern Copenhagen on Friday, the sixth night of rioting and vandalism that has spread from the capital to other Danish cities, police said on Saturday.
Five youths were arrested in the capital on Friday after 28 cars and 35 garbage trucks were burned, Copenhagen police duty officer Jakob Kristensen told Reuters.
Danish media said arrests in other towns brought to 29 the number of people police were holding.
Scores of cars and several schools have been vandalized or burned in the past week. Police could give no reason, but said that unusually mild weather and the closure of schools for a winter break might have contributed.
Police arrested two Tunisians and a Dane of Moroccan descent on Tuesday for planning to kill a cartoonist who drew one of the cartoons printed in a Danish newspaper two years ago that roused a storm of protest in Muslim countries.
Fifteen Danish newspapers reprinted his drawing on Wednesday in protest against the alleged murder plot.
Several hundred Muslims gathered in central Copenhagen on Friday to protest against publication of the cartoon. Most Muslims consider depictions of the founder of Islam offensive.
Social workers said the arrests, the reprinting of the cartoon and protests against its appearance might have fuelled the riots.
Publication of the cartoons two years ago led to protests and rioting in Muslim countries in which at least 50 people were killed and three Danish embassies attacked.

"Police arrested two Tunisians and a Dane of Moroccan descent on Tuesday for planning to kill a cartoonist..."
That's the best part !!!
ISLAM THE RELIGION OF PEACE!
Not an encouraging sign.
If there are NO Photos of him and no one was ever allowed to do a drawing or painting of him, and most men over there wear turbans like this, HOW the &*@#$(*#@^(*&$^@#*&( do they KNOW it is supposed to be HIM?
All they have to do is shoot a few and the rest of these cockroaches will slink away and disappear.
The magnificent Danish unwillingness to accept Dhimmitude should be an example for all other countries. Certainly that includes the U.S., but mostly we’re on decent ground there. Some countries are not. I’m looking at you, formerly-Great-Britain.
Police could give no reason, but said that unusually mild weather and the closure of schools for a winter break might have contributed.
Imbeciles.
Social workers said the arrests, the reprinting of the cartoon and protests against its appearance might have fuelled the riots.
MIGHT have?
Also imbeciles.
Publication of the cartoons two years ago led to protests and rioting in Muslim countries in which at least 50 people were killed and three Danish embassies attacked.
So we need to airdrop literally millions of cartoons on these lunatics and maybe they’ll all kill themselves?
This is something that continues to escape the Europeans. Its the whole reason that they are doomed to be taken over by the Muslims.
Any nation that allows in and invites in (like Denmark did) is bloody insane! The Danes realize their mistake so now what do they do? The way anarchic Muslim “yutes” carry on in Europe -—What more proof does anyone need that Islam is a cancer?
Never bet on a false prophet! <<———>> Never bet on Islam!
Try this, Europe. Get a bunch of leaky steamers, dock them in your port, no publicity or fanfare. Next time there’s a riot of Islamofascists, have the police escort the rioters under armed threat to the docks, and offer them a free trip to Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria or wherever. Some place where they like to put towels on their heads. If they refuse to get on the ships, shoot them. End of riot. End of invasions.
Beheadings, suicide bombings, and rioting are quite all right, though.
What do you want to bet that Morocco, Tunisia or wherever would refuse the ship the right to dock? Still, it’s a nice thought I have to admit.
First France, now Denmark.
The ROP using their youth as shock troops is now SOP.
Well, in that case there’s always a gangplank and some hungry sharks.
I would imagine that they could pass legislation that, anybody who was not a citizen (i.e., on a visa, an invited guest of the Danes) and was arrested for any crime (including rioting), was subject to immediate deportation (without the right of return).
As a matter of fact, such legislation would be appropriate in any free society.
Guests don't get to come into your home and crap on the living room carpet.
I thought the Danish had more courage than the French
It is a valid question, though, deportation to where? Country of origin, perhaps. But then they’d claim refugee status. That’s why I favor dumping them somewhere that they wear towels on their heads. If they won’t let them in at the port, smuggle them in somewhere along the coast. If their borders are too well patrolled, dump them a mile off shore.
They rioted. Their bad. Law-abiding, hard-working Muslim types are free to not riot and thereby stay in the country. If they can’t control their teenage sons, that’s their problem.
Write to your Danish People’s Diet-man.
Right, not muslims but youths. You would think that after France, and now Denmark, that they would figure out their best interest lies is exposing these muslim thugs for who they are and cracking down on them. Making them the objects of terror that they really are and giving name to them would inspire the general populace to cry out against them. As it is now, with hate crimes and racists being screamed every time one of them is singled out for arrest or conviction, they are being encouraged to keep up this type of BS.
The people of the world, not just EU, had better wake up soon and start using force against these murderous thugs.
