grimmbro Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 The police that have been resting for weeks at S31 hotel are currently moving back by increments as a small mob (150 red shirts backed by motorcycle taxis and a few regular taxis) are pushing themselves down Soi 31. It did not take long for the mob to push back as they head up to the PMs home. Lots of shouting but no shooting yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimmbro Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Mob seems to have stopped for the time being about 100 meters down the soi. Traffic still moving on Sukhumvit. More Red shirts gathering though. Police need to take training from guards at S31hotel. A splinter group of reds tried to go into the lobby of the hotel and 5 security guards managed to keep them at bay and pushed back. Mean while the police just keep moving down the soi, giving ground.
