Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva's motorcade was attacked today during traffic snarls at an intersection heading to South Pattaya Road.
The attack happened at 1:15 pm when Abhisit's official car and a Toyota Prado of the security officials were trapped by angry red-shirted protesters who hit the vehicles and pelted them with water bottles.
Initially, two red-shirted people on a motorcycle, who dispersed from the rally at the Pattaya's Royal Cliff Beach Hotel, recognized Abhisit's car and alerted their red-shirted friends to surround it.
The security officials then had Abhisit moved to the Prado so that they could escape but the number of protesters quickly grew to about 50 and they surrounded both two vehicles and pelted the vehicles with water bottles apart from hitting the vehicles with feet clappers.
A woman waded through police to stick her head inside the vehicle to shout at the prime minister. A protester then used his motorcycle to block the way of the Prado which eventually ran over it. After thee-minute tussle, the Prado managed to run out of the surround but some protesters ran after it and shook the car and hit it with bottles and a helmet, causing a hole at the back window.
The eventually vehicle managed to escape.
