TERRORISTS barely out of their teens struck at 10 spots in Mumbai, some laughing as they peppered the lobbies of two luxury hotels with machine-gun fire and lobbed grenades at the main railway station of India's biggest metropolis.
City police yesterday said the death toll had touched 120 and another 300 were being treated for injuries in city hospitals. Seven foreigners died, including a Japanese man and an Australian.
The terrorists had asked Americans and Britons to identify themselves, survivors said.
'They just fired shots all round'

MUMBAI: Ms Mahek Mathur was enjoying a night out at a pub in the Oberoi-Trident hotels complex in Mumbai, when two men with backpacks barged into the hotel lobby with guns blazing.
They hurled hand grenades, killing the receptionist and a bellboy before turning their attention to the pub, she recounted.
'They just fired all around, I saw at least three people drop down dead right before my eyes,' Ms Mathur told The Straits Times.
