MUMBAI, India (CNN) -- A series of seven explosions hit crowded rush-hour trains Tuesday evening in the Indian financial capital of Mumbai, killing at least 135 people, police said.
Officials said 250 to 300 people were injured in the blasts.
There was some confusion about the number of dead and injured as information was compiled from hospitals and explosion sites in Mumbai, the west Indian seaport previously called Bombay.
Video footage from a train station showed people in bloodstained clothes receiving medical treatment, while others were carrying victims and some lying motionless near railroad tracks. Windows of a train appeared to be spattered with blood.
At least one train was split in half. (Watch rescuers pull blood-covered victims from wrecked trains -- 1:59)
The blasts hit trains or platforms at the Khar, Mahim, Matunga, Jogeshwari, Borivili and Bhayander stations. The seventh explosion struck a train between the Khar and Santacruz stations, a police official told CNN-IBN, CNN's sister network.
Police also found and defused another bomb at the Borivili station, according to CNN-IBN.
A CNN-IBN correspondent who was on one of the trains said it was leaving a station when the blast occurred. People jumped and were killed as the train hit them.
'Limbs lying everywhere'
"Limbs [are] lying everywhere, bodies [were] cleared from the tracks by local business owners who rushed from their shops," the correspondent said.
Another correspondent, Anjali Sinha, tried to get on a train at the Matunga station but it was too crowded. As that train pulled away, a blast shattered the men-only first-class coach.
"There was smoke, fire, it was absolutely ..." she stammered, her voice shaking.
A correspondent for CNN's sister network, CNN-IBN, reported seeing 15 bodies at the Matunga train station.

I am sure the people behind it will soon take credit for this massacre - really unreal - what do these people want?
what can they possibly hope to accomplish?
my heart goes out to India, especially those who lost people dear to them for NO - GOOD - REASON.
is there any "solution" to this?

Yeh, this is a frightening reminder that we don't have to be asleep to experience a nightmare. My thoughts are with those affected--both in Mumbai and around the world. A tragedy.  I hope there are international efforts to help the country in its aftermaths.

it is all a part of the plan to break the communal harmony in India...but guess what ??? We are not going to fall for it everytime!!!
Mumbai reacted very well this time...And we are going to face every situation like this ... Pakistan govt or other agencies should stop sponsoring terrorism as it will do them no good...
My friends from Pakistan deeply regret this incident and I hope their government also echoes their sentiment...

It's been 3 weeks since the blasts and the authorities have no clue as to who was behind them.
Fingers have been pointed at the Laksher e Toiba, Pakistan and the banned-Students Islamic Movement of India. The authorities have failed to produce a shread of evidence against all three.
Wake Up India before there are more bombings!

either they are sleeping or they are on their way without letting the media know!
if the police find out, the media might get to know something...
but the Army might be carrying covert operations away from the nedia glare...
Army is usually dependable but this time I am sure the intelligence unit has been ar fault !!!
