 20 minutes later, news came that a taxi was bombed in Vile Parle area, resulting in the death of the driver and a passenger.  About 15 were also injured in both these attacks.  After this, it came to light about the incidents of firing at many places in Mumbai, then Mumbai Police and Intelligence realized that this was a major terrorist attack.  The attackers targeted Mumbai's two five-star hotels Oberoi Trident and Taj, Chhatrapati Shivaji Railway Station, Nariman House Jewish Centre, Leopold Cafe and Cama Hospital.
