Video Shows Bangkok Bombing Suspect Leaving Backpack

A suspect clad in a yellow T-shirt was being hunted Tuesday in connection with a deadly bombing at a Bangkok shrine popular with tourists that killed 22 people, NBC News reported.

Surveillance video of the man shows him carrying a backpack in one location near the scene of Monday's bombing and then later without the bag, Thailand's police chief Somyot Pumpanmuang told reporters.

At least 22 people, including nine foreigners, were killed in the attack during Monday night's rush hour. Witnesses described a scene of horror after the blast caused scattered body parts, blasted windows and burned motorcycles to the metal.

A second explosive was later thrown from a bridge in the Thai capital.
