Familyonthemove Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 There's not much left of the car. Looks like much more than a gas tank explosion to me. I am at the area now and many injured at Amarin Shrine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellacissa Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 CNN is reporting that they're closing the area to detonate another unexploded bomb. No clue as to accuracy, as things are always hastily reported in situations like this, but something to watch out for if you're in the area.

tumama Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 From this picture the railing has been bent outwards, so the bomb must have gone off on the pavement next to the shrine: http://www.channelnewsasia.com/blob/2056458/1439816463000/thailand-bomb-2-data.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiang mai Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Why are the major news outlets reporting this as "Totally Unexpected?" I think it has something to do with the fact that nobody expected it, perhaps apart from you that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
