BANGKOK, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 22th july, 2016) - Four people were injured Friday when a driver had a seizure and her car ploughed into a Hindu shrine in Bangkok hit by a fatal bomb last year, police said. The light blue sedan veered off a major road in the heart of the capital and slammed through a gate onto the grounds of Erawan Shrine, the site of a bombing in August 2015 that left 20 dead and scores injured.
"It was an accident," Lumpini police commander Pornchai Chalodet told AFP of the car crash. "A lady had epilepsy while driving and couldn't control the car which went into Erawan Shrine. Four people were injured," he said.
