80 killed, 900 injured, 100 taken hostage in attacks on Hotels in Mumbai
2008-11-26
Three people were killed and 25 injured in multiple attacks across India's financial capital, with shots fired near luxury hotels and the city's main railway station, CNN-IBN reported.

The shootings took place at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, formerly known as Victoria Terminus, one of the two stations in downtown Mumbai, CNN-IBN said. There were also reports of explosions and continued firing, the channel said.

"Some terrorist incidents are happening. Some grenades were lobbed,'' A.N. Roy, director general of police for Maharashtra state said over the telephone from Mumbai. "Our men are dealing with the situation. Please give us some time to get a clearer picture."

Shootings also took pace outside Café Leopold and at the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower hotel, both in the Colaba area of south Mumbai, CNN-IBN reported

Police threw a cordon around the Trident hotel in Nariman Point, the central business district, CNN-IBN said. One eyewitness said there was a fire in the lobby and that some of the guests were still inside there.
