<p>Two explosions in central Stockholm killed one person and injured two, causing panic among Christmas shoppers.</p>
<p>Police spokeswoman Petra Sjolander said a car exploded near Drottninggatan, a busy shopping street in the centre of the city. Shortly afterward, a second explosion was heard higher up on the same street, and a man was found injured on the ground.</p>
<p>He was later pronounced dead.</p>
<p>Two other people were taken to the hospital with lighter injuries, but it was not immediately clear in which explosion they were hurt.</p>
<p>Rescue services spokesman Roger Sverndal said the car that exploded contained gas canisters.</p>
<p>Mr Sjolander said it was unclear what caused the second explosion and if the two blasts were linked, but said a police bomb squad is at the site.</p>
<p>Gabriel Gabiro heard the explosion from inside a watch store across the street and saw smoke coming from the area where the man was lying. &#8220;There was a man lying on the ground with blood coming out of his belly, and with his personal belongings scattered around him,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Gabiro said the blast was &#8220;quite loud&#8221; and he saw people running from the site.</p>
<p>&#8220;It shook the store that I was in,&#8221; he said of the blast. &#8220;Then there was smoke and gun powder coming into the store.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sweden &#8211; which has so far been spared any large terrorist attacks &#8211; raised its terror threat alert level from low to elevated in October because of &#8220;a shift in activities&#8221; among Swedish-based groups that could be plotting attacks there.</p>
