BANGKOK (Reuters) - At least 11 people were injured in a street clash between protesters and government supporters in Bangkok on Tuesday, a city emergency services official said.

"Eleven people were taken to hospital and six have been admitted," the official told Reuters.

Television footage of the incident showed at least two security guards from the anti-government People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) firing half a dozen rounds from handguns at the government supporters.
