Bangkok, Thailand - A policeman lost his foot while trying to save fellow officers by kicking away a grenade.
Since November, Thailand has been engulfed in a series of protests with people calling the Government to step down because of corruption.
The demonstrators want the current PM to step down to make way for an appointed interim government to implement reforms they say are necessary to fight corruption.
Thai police have been tasked to clear protest sites which gradually turn into riots and have already claimed a number of lives and left dozens injured.
The gruesome scenes were captured by an onlooker. The officer appears to spot the grenade from behind the wall of shields, and moves forward to punt it away. But it seems he is a second too late, as the device detonates by his foot. See detailed photos and video of how it happened below:
