Swedish citizen killed in Paris attacks

Sweden’s Prime Minister Stefan Lofven says a Swedish citizen was killed in the Paris attacks, and there are unconfirmed reports of a Swede wounded by gunfire.

Lofven says “We have been in contact with the next of kin. They should of course know that the whole of the Swedish people and my sympathy is with them, our hearts are with you.”

Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Victoria Bell says a Swedish national may have gun wounds. She didn’t give further details about his condition.
