Bangkok, Thailand (CNN) -- Weerachai Khonlar was ferrying passengers to a Buddhist temple in the protest zone in Bangkok when shots rang out.
One bullet pierced the fiberglass on the front wheel of his royal blue Honda R125, the other barreled straight through his seat and into the storage compartment.
Khonlar's passenger jumped off, as did the wiry 37-year-old taxi driver.
"It's a miracle I survived," he said. "If I hadn't jumped off my motorbike, I'd have been shot twice".
"My right leg and lower back would have definitely been hit," said Khonlar, who does not know who was shooting -- only that the bullets came from behind.
Khonlar got caught in the crossfire as he neared Wat Patumwanaram Temple, a Buddhist temple that had been a haven for thousands of anti-government protesters early in the week. But Thursday there were a few people there -- and six bodies could be seen. >>>
