Gunfire follows witnesses fleeing violence in Mumbai
(CNN) -- Manuela Testolini and her colleagues had just sat down to dinner at the Oberoi hotel restaurant in Mumbai, India, on Wednesday when the sound of gunfire erupted outside.
At first, they didn't know what it was. Then, one of Testolini's colleagues saw a man get shot to death outside the restaurant's front door, and everyone started to run.
"We left everything behind, including purses and phones," Testolini told CNN's Miles O'Brien. "There was a lot of panic."
Testolini said gunfire followed her as she and dozens more fled through the kitchen and down to the ballroom, where they found temporary refuge from the gunfire and grenades raining outside.
Testolini, a Canadian in Mumbai for business, was at the center of a brazen series of coordinated attacks in southern Mumbai that rocked the city overnight Wednesday.
