wpf click mouseevent stackpanel

I need to be able to handle the double click and single click event on the WPF StackPanel. But there is no such thing as the StackPanel's DoubleClick Event. I want to do 2 different operations in these 2 EventHandlers.

Any idea how to do that?

Thank you

 <StackPanel MouseDown="StackPanel_MouseDown">
   <!--stackpanel content-->
    <TextBlock>Hello</TextBlock>
</StackPanel>

Then in the event handler:

 private void StackPanel_MouseDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.ClickCount >= 2)
        { 
            string hello; //only hit here on double click  
        }
    }

Should work. Note that single clicking in the StackPanel would hit the event (but fail the if check)
