Danish emergency services on Tuesday deemed the situation at the former Copenhagen Stock Exchange building "unstable," three days after a fire, due to damaged equipment and strong winds.

In the morning, during the dismantling of the scaffolding surrounding the building, the pivot of a crane came loose for reasons that are still unknown.
It is now wedged between the construction equipment installed for the planned renovation of the historic building and what remains of its walls.
"This is affecting our work," a spokesman for the emergency services, Tim Ole Simonsen, told a press conference.
Coupled with increased wind speeds, the incident, which has temporarily halted the dismantling of the scaffolding, has made the situation at the site "unstable".
"The wind is picking up, and there are tarpaulins on the scaffolding that it could tear off," said Simonsen.
"That increases the risk," he added, notably of further collapses, after the charred facade caved in late on Thursday afternoon.
A landmark building in the Danish capital, the former stock exchange, which dates back to the 17th century, was due to celebrate its 400th anniversary this year.
The fire broke out for unknown reasons at 7:30am local time (6:30am GMT) on Tuesday in the roof of the brick building, and half of it was reduced to ashes.
Police, who have not yet been able to access the site, have warned that the investigation will be lengthy.
