   Police  in  Sweden say one person was killed and two others wounded in
   two almost simultaneous explosions in central Stockholm Saturday.
   The  police say the first blast occurred in a car near a busy shopping
   street  and  left  two  people  hurt.   Shortly  afterward,  a second
   explosion  was  heard  on  the same street, and police later found one
   person dead at the scene.
   A  police spokeswoman says it is unclear what caused the blasts and if
   they are linked.
   The  Associated Press quotes a rescue services spokesman as saying the
   car that exploded first contained gas canisters.
   No other details were immediately available.

   Some information for this report was provided by AP, AFP and Reuters.
