An Iranian man severely injured himself in Bangkok when he threw a bomb at Thai police and it ricocheted off a tree, exploding as it bounced back towards him, the English-language Thai newspaper The Bangkok Post reported Tuesday.

Two bombs on Sukhumvit 71 road wounded five people, including the Iranian man, according to the report. Witnesses reported seeing a man lying beside a blown-out telephone booth with his legs decimated.

According to a Thai television report, an "Iranian man" carrying a "black bag" hurled the first bomb towards a taxi after the driver refused to accept him as a passenger.
