Mumbai: At least 15 people have been injured in gunfights between two groups in at least three places in Mumbai on Thursday night.

Details are sketchy but it is believed that two gangs fired at each other at outside CST Railway Terminus, Hotel Oberoi and the popular Café Leopold restaurant in Mumbai.

The first shooting took place near the CST police station

Two huge explosions and gunfire at Taj. Must be moving on the last 1 or 2 terrorists. Man oh man. How many terrorists are there ?

[21twelve]

reminder for list of people.

[justa-hairyape]

Lots of firing at Nariman House.

7 terrorists killed at Taj. Wow. 7 terrorists per Hotel attack ?

[ScaniaBoy]

According to link at post #1845 one injured terrorist still remains in the Taj. Security forces expect to “mop up” soon.

[Srirangan]

Local TV stations reported that some employees and guests also joined the terrorists. Were hoarding ammo in the hotels for weeks?

[justa-hairyape]

How in the world did they keep this staging a secret ?

With the remaining terrorist in the Taj and the 7 reported killed in the Taj, that's at least 8 terrorists attacking the Taj alone. You might be right on some prestaging and sleepers being placed inside the Hotel.

Hi neighbor--wondered when I saw your reference to JoCo if you meant the county where GP is. So sad that they're taking the dam out, especially for those (like you?) who live on the "lake portion" of the Rogue. Am sure all those who are so gung-ho about removing the dam are going to be the first ones to cry when our tourist industry gets hit hard--especially in RR!

Just like the ones who whined the most about the libraries closing due to the loss of O&C funds seem to be the ones who were so passionate about defending the spotted owl against the logging industry

Guess over-weening devotion to a cause can lead, at best, to unintended and often disastrous consequences, and at worst, to paving the kind of "road to hell" that we are seeing so covered with blood in Bombay.

In either case--may God have mercy!

It appears to have been an extremely complex operation.

But that’s good - for the good guys. There will be more threads to unravel. The bad thing is that most preliminary clues point towards Pakistan wittingly or unwittingly acting as base for the terrorists.

[Republic of Texas]

Unwittingly. That’s cute.

[justa-hairyape]

Now reporting that 3 to 4 terrorist are still in the old heritage wing of the Taj. Might still be hostages. Are the terrorists coming out of the wood work or what ?

9 EXPLOSIONS IN 15 MINUTES AT NARIMAN HOUSE .

take care....continued prayers for all involved

[justa-hairyape]

It looked as if police were firing tear gas into the Nariman house. They shot something large with very little aim into the house. Must have been a canister weapon. Then the firing broke out strong.

[Indian_Fighter_Kite]

5 BLAST AT TAJ AGAIN ?

Indian cooking is great but ......... Many Indians are abandoning traditional Indian cooking and are moving on to western dishes like pasta .
