A car slammed into the fence of the Erawan Shrine on Friday night, injuring at least six people in the compound of the popular attraction.

The Toyota sedan apparently lost control, hit the fence and came to a stop inside the shrine compound at the Ratchaprasong intersection in central Bangkok, Thai Rath reported.

FM 91 Traffic Police radio reported earlier that at least five people were injured, but Thai Rath said the number had risen to six. They were paying respects to the Hindu god at the shrine at the time, according to the Daily News.
