Suspected car bomb kills one in Bangkok


    BANGKOK (Reuters) - A suspected car bomb killed one person in central Bangkok on Tuesday, a few kilometres from where anti-government protesters were laying siege to parliament, a senior police officer said.

    "I suspect it was a car bomb because the body parts were cut in pieces and an arm was blown 20 metres away from the car," Colonel Somchai Choyklin, head of Bangkok's Dusit police station, told Reuters.
