Iranian bomber maimed when his own explosive goes off in Bangkok
An Iranian man was seriously wounded in Bangkok Tuesday when a bomb he was carrying exploded and blew one of his legs off, police and government officials said, but they declined to speculate on whether he was involved with any militant group.
Shortly before, there had been an explosion in a house the man was renting in the Ekamai area of central Bangkok, and shortly afterwards, another blast on a nearby road. (Photos: Damir Sagolj/Reuters; Nicolas Asfouri/AFP/Getty Images)
