Police: Two killed in Indian blast
MUMBAI, India (CNN) -- Two people were killed and 15 others were wounded Monday in a blast in a crowded suburb of Mumbai, India, a police official said. The official said it was too soon to say whether the blast was an attack, but security has been tightened. Officials said the explosion took place at the rear of an empty city bus in Ghatkopar, an eastern suburb of Mumbai, previously known as Bombay. The casualties were bystanders, officials said, and the bus, which was close to a railway station, was destroyed in the blast. Such blasts in the teeming metropolitan area are rare. India has been concerned over recent attacks against Indian targets in the disputed territory of Kashmir. India's Jammu and Kashmir state is in the north of the country. Mumbai is on the western coast of India, toward the south along the Arabian Sea.
