A Brooklyn couple is caught in the cross fire in Mumbai. They moved to India to manage a Chabad house, run by the Lubavitch. Their 2-year-old son was released

This from the New York Times:

In 2003, barely out of their teens and newly married, Rabbi Gavriel
Holtzberg and his wife, Rivka, moved from Brooklyn to the coastal city
of Mumbai, India, to manage a mix of educational center, synagogue and
social hall known as a Chabad house, one of about 3,500 outposts around
the world run by the Lubavitch Hasidic movement.

The place
soon became a year-round magnet for Israeli backpackers and the Jewish
businessmen and tourists who flock to Mumbai, as well as for the Iraqi
and Indian Jews who live there. Mrs. Holtzberg served visitors coffee
and homemade kosher delicacies. Rabbi Holtzberg always offered a
helping hand to someone who was sick or stranded, often calling worried
parents or spouses miles and miles away to calm them.

On
Wednesday, the Holtzbergs’ Chabad house became an unlikely target of
the terrorist gunmen who unleashed a series of bloody coordinated
attacks at locations in and around Mumbai’s commercial center.

Firing
grenades and automatic weapons, the men also took the Holtzbergs and at
least six other people hostage in the Chabad house, according to
friends of the Holtzbergs. The couple’s 2-year-old son, Moshe, and a
cook managed to escape about 12 hours into the siege, the friends said.
The boy’s pants were soaked in blood when he emerged. By late Thursday
afternoon in New York, there was still no news of his parents’ fate.
