1993 Danish Maastricht Treaty referendum

[1] After rejecting the treaty in a referendum the previous year, this time it was approved by 56.7% of voters with an 86.5% turnout.

Thus, the Edinburgh Agreement granted Denmark four exceptions from the Maastricht Treaty, leading to its eventual ratification.

When the result of the referendum was announced, the outcome and frustrations about the referendum being held only a year after the Danes had rejected the previous treaty led to riots in the Nørrebro area of Copenhagen, during which police shot and wounded at least 11 people "to prevent an injured colleague being stoned to death".

These 11 people, not in critical conditions, were subsequently treated for gunshot wounds as a result of the shooting.
