BANGKOK : Thai protesters seized at least one army tank deployed to enforce a state of emergency in Bangkok, a police spokesman told AFP on Sunday.
"The protest has spread to many parts of Bangkok. Protesters have seized tanks and armoured cars," Major General Suporn Phansua, spokesman for Bangkok Metropolitan Police, told AFP.
He added they were still tallying up how many had been taken by protesters.
Minutes earlier, protest leader Hweng Tojirakarn announced to supporters outside government offices that the group had taken two tanks and one armoured car in the heart of Bangkok's shopping district. - AFP/ms
