A person has rammed their car into the gates of the US embassy in Seoul, South Korea. The driver has reportedly been arrested by police.
A photo posted online by Reuters correspondent Josh Smith shows a silver Toyota sedan with obvious damage to the front after hitting the gate.  There are unconfirmed reports circulating that the driver was North Korean and seeking asylum in the US. The man reportedly said "help me" several times after getting out of the vehicle.
