A car bomb exploded near Spain’s paramilitary civil guard headquarters in Madrid, killing at least one person and wounding at least 21 others, authorities said.

The blast was heard for miles across the capital and blew apart a 15-foot section of the facing of the civil guard headquarters in the city’s western district.
