[quote][B](Updated 3) A car exploded at the busy shopping street Drottninggatan in central Stockholm. Then there was another explosion some distance away and one man died. According to news agency TT, a man had blown himself to death. He carried six interconnected pipe bombs but only one exploded. He also had a backpack full of nails, according to newspaper Aftonbladet.[/B]
Alarm calls started to pour in to the Emergency Services from concerned residents after the explosions in central Stockholm on Saturday afternoon. But the initial information from the police was very unclear. The initial information described two car explosions, but later it proved to be just about one.
“A car at street Olof Palmes gata has exploded, we got the alarm at two minutes over five o'clock PM. Two minutes later, we received yet another alarm about an explosion from street Bryggargatan some distance away," said Ulf Göranzon, at the Stockholm Police.
A man was found dead at the place of the second explosion . According to news agency TT the police assumes that the man was not damaged in the car explosion, but that he somehow blasted himself.
[B]Shouted in Arabic[/B]
Police bomb technicians examined the dead man's bag by using a bomb robot. Radiographs show that it contained a large quantity of nails and an unknown substance which is suspected to be explosives.
At least four ambulances were sent to the scene. Two people were taken to hospital with minor injuries, they had been in the vicinity of the explosions.
According to witnesses, the man shouted something in Arabic before the bomb detonated.
The Swedish news agency TT reports that both them and the Swedish Security Service received a video-film only ten minutes before the explosions.
In the film a man addresses to "Sweden and the Swedish people". He, among else, refers to the Swedish silence on artist Lars Vilks paintings of the muslim prophet Mohammed, the Swedish soldiers in Afghanistan, saying that "now shall your children, daughters and sisters die as our brothers and sisters and children are dying."
[B]Security Service in meeting[/B]
The Security Service and the Stockholm Police are in a meeting following the explosions.
There is however still much confusion. The Security Service do not want to make any statement in the current situation. Safety measures have not been increased in Stockholm.

Better luck next time... Oh wait.
Good news!
why would anyone want to hurt the swedes?
they're the swedes!
Damn that'd suck.
"yo satan how many peeps I kill"
"none lol"
What the shit. I just read about it. Feels so strange that it happens in Sweden. We all read about terrorists day after day but once it happens in your country of residence.. and I'm not even in Stockholm.
Still, this will make the already paranoid Swedes more paranoid towards me since I'm from Iran. :saddowns:

Just stay away from idiots and you'll stay safe.
I fucking called it. I knew this would happen if we support USA. I'm not saying USA is bad or so, but in the eyes of most terroists, they are.

most suicide bombers do this or similar things.
this is horrible. why would anyone want to blow themselves up in this country? we haven't done anything to anyone in decades.
Oh god, oh god, I'm crying hahahaha.
Suicide bombers? In Sweden?
What.
To be fair, it's pretty hard to train suicide bombers, as there isn't anyone alive that is truly qualified to teach.
Good to hear that no one got killed by this chump.

It's a pretty OLD idea.
The IRA did this with cars n such way before the ragamuffins started exploding.
Well, somebody's not getting any virgins in the afterlife.
Wow, this is pretty damn weird for happening in Sweden. We're one of the most Arab-loving countries in the world. We take in more Arabs yearly than both the US and Canada put together, and we're a really small country compared to those two. Why the hell would they blow themselves up here, when it will only lead to greater debate about the mass-immigration, and possibly a lowered amount of Arabs coming in. Pretty stupid strategy.

Do you really think these muslim extremists care about how many arabs we take in per year? They hate Sweden for one reason; we're not muslims. They don't give a fuck about our immigration policies.
Holy shit, this is way too close to Latvia. I'm pretty creeped out now.
I went for a job interview in Stockholm a few weeks ago. I found out I got the job yesterday (international copyright administrator) and I'm moving over there in January (I'm from London). This news could not be more timely.

This is an extraordinary event; I'm pretty sure this is the first ever suicide bombing in Sweden. Don't worry.
Ahahaha, usually I wouldn't laugh at the death of someone but I don't give a fuck about such a fucking monster

Yeah I'm not worried, just very timely. What are the odds, of all the cities in Europe.
My dad was working as it exploded. He said he hear the explosion sounds and the burning car.
Skip to 2.25 if you want to hear an explosion.
