Some 300 protesters have scuffled with police at Copenhagen Airport railway station. They were rallying against ID checks between Denmark and Sweden introduced about a week ago.

The demonstrators came from both countries.

They were protesting against the border checks, which could increase the commute time from Copenhagen to Malmo from 40 minutes to just over an hour.

Some 20,000 commuters travel from Denmark to Sweden every day.
