NEW DELHI (Reuters) - A witness told Indian television that gunmen in India's financial hub of Mumbai looked for British and U.S. passport holders

"They wanted anyone with British or American passports," a witness at the Taj Hotel, who said he was from London and was in India on business, told the NDTV news channel. He had smoke stains all over his face. "They wanted foreigners."
