STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A Swedish woman who photographed a swan in the river outside the royal palace in Stockholm made a grim discovery when the film was developed: a hand sticking out of the ice. Newspaper Aftonbladet said on its Web Site that Marita Larsson was walking around Stockholm's Old Town in early March and took a photo of a swan on the river as a spring thaw melted the ice.
"It was only when I came home and developed the film that I saw there was something particular about the picture. When I had it blown up I saw there was a hand sticking out of the ice," she told the newspaper.
A spokesman for Stockholm police said the hand might be that of a man who committed suicide in late January and whose body has not yet been found.
Police last week also fished various body parts of a woman, including the head and hands, out of the river, and are still trying to identify her.
Maybe it was one of Clinton's old "girlfriends".
(Yeah. I know it's tacky, but it's better than saying it was one of Ted Kennedy's.)
A Polar Bear Club event gone awry?
Add to that (Blow-Up): The band was supposed to have been The Who, but when they couldn't make it, the Yardbirds filled in. That's Jeff Beck bustin up the guitar..
It was trying to clap, but it was only one hand.
Was it aa African or European swan?
