Thai protester shot in head near encampment


    BANGKOK (Reuters) - An anti-government protester in Thailand was shot in the head on Thursday near the "red shirt" encampment in central Bangkok, a Reuters witness said.

    He was shot as a group of protesters came down a road that security forces had closed as part of a massive lockdown on an encampment in an upscale shopping district that the red shirts have occupied for two months.
