Police find first clues in Mumbai bombing

Indian authorities have found the scooter used in one of the three bombings that shocked Mumbai Tuesday afternoon. According to Indian Home Secretary R.K. Singh, the bombers planted an explosive inside a motorized scooter and parked it in a heavily populated location. Police have recovered the vehicle and are examining it for clues. Police are also digging through surveillance videos and forensic evidence looking for any leads. They have collected dozens of CDs of closed circuit cameras and are examining the faces of everyone on tape to see if they are locals. The videotapes might have already worked, and authorities have their first suspects. Three men, thought to be "pretending" to be strangers, made simultaneous cell phone calls at the same location about an hour before the bombs detonated. Police are examining the evidence.
