Thai riot police have clashed with anti-government protesters who stormed the Thai prime minister's office compound in Bangkok.
Hundreds of officers briefly confronted the intruders at Government House.
Earlier, thousands of demonstrators invaded government buildings and a state-run TV station.
The protesters say Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej is a proxy for ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in a 2006 coup and is now in self-imposed exile.
After the intruders ignored a deadline to leave the prime minister's headquarters, hundreds of riot police moved in during the early hours of Wednesday morning.
