Danish Muhammad cartoonist retires near age 75

Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard, who caricatured the Prophet Muhammad and caused outrage in the Muslim world, said Monday he is quitting because he is getting old: Westergaard said he hopes his retirement might help “to lower the terror threat” against the Jyllands-Posten newspaper where he has been working for the past 27 years.
