The leader of an extremist Norwegian anti-Islamic group was involved in a spectacular car chase and collision on Saturday, just minutes after burning a Koran, on the outskirts of Oslo.
The driver of a car accused of deliberately ramming the SUV of Lars Thorsen, leader of the radical group “Stop the Islamisation of Norway,” was arrested, according to Norwegian police (Sian).
The five passengers in the SUV were slightly injured, with one requiring hospital treatment, police said.
A video posted on Facebook showed Thorsen and other activists first drive to Mortensrud, a suburb of Oslo with a large Muslim community.
The handful of activists then placed a burning Koran in the middle of a small intersection, initially managing to push back local people who tried to put out the flames.
An angry crowd gathered, including one woman who grabbed the charred book before climbing into a grey Mercedes.
