Historic Copenhagen Stock Exchange Blaze: Closure With No Culprit

Danish police announced the closure of the investigation into the destructive fire at Copenhagen's Old Stock Exchange, citing no evidence of criminal activity.

Comprehensive forensic analysis and numerous witness interviews failed to unearth the cause of the blaze, leaving the origin undetermined, said Officer Brian Belling.
