A $1-million "reward" is being offered for killing a cartoonist who drew pictures of the prophet Muhammad in Pakistan.

A Pakistani cleric made the offer Friday as a mob of thousands stormed the streets near the Danish embassy, government buildings and western businesses, according to the AP.

Following his announcement, "police confined the former leader of an Islamic militant group to his home to prevent him from addressing supporters over the cartoons, amid fears he could incite violence, after riots this week killed five people."
