Passengers jump off moving train after seeing smoke coming out of a bag
Passengers of a Borivli-bound local pressed the panic button last night after a bag belonging to a fellow commuter started emitting smoke.
What they suspected to be a bomb was, however, a battery of a cellphone that exploded. But this did not stop nervous commuters from jumping off the running train. Some commuters suffered minor injuries.
The incident took place at around 9.45 pm between Andheri and Jogeshwari when 25-year-old Manishkumar Pathak's bag began to emit smoke in the general compartment of the train.
