A Swedish 19-year-old is suspected of having thrown a hand grenade towards a pizzeria on Zealand. Now he has been extradited to Denmark.

The hand grenade exploded and caused a fire at a pizzeria in Søborg northwest of Copenhagen on March 24 this year, according to Sjællandske Nyheder.

Three months later, the Swedish teenager was arrested in his absence. On Wednesday, he was extradited to Denmark. He is suspected under the so-called gang paragraph, which means a possibility to double the sentence if the crime has a connection to gang crime.
