Second Bangkok Bombing Near Riverfront

People walk past a Police investigation of a bomb thrown in a canal inlet near the Saphan Thaksin BTS and River. They prepare to drain the canal to search for evidence. This happened a day after a bomb exploded close to the Erawanshrine in the center of Thailand's capital, Bangkok, killing at least 20 people and injuring more than 125. CCTV shows a man leaving a backpack on a bench at the shrine minutes before the bomb exploded. No-one has yet said they carried out the attack, which took place close to the Erawan shrine in Bangkok's central Chidlom district. The shrine is a major tourist attraction. The Thai government said the attack was aimed at foreigners. Local media report that tourists, including Chinese, are among the casualties.
