Voice of America
BANGKOK - Thai riot police fired tear gas and sprayed water cannons Sunday as more than 100 anti-government protesters marched on an army base in the capital Bangkok where Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha has his residence.
The group of mainly young demonstrators pelted the police lines that blocked their way, hurling rocks, fireworks and small explosives known as "ping-pong bombs." Televised images of a Thai police station showed a traffic control booth in flames. Sunday marked the fourth time in the past seven days that protesters and police have fought in the Din Daeng area of the city.More Related News
