A man was shot dead and three others, including his father, were injured when a group of armed attackers barged into his house in outer north Delhi's Bawana on Thursday and opened fire, police said suspecting a gang rivalry behind the attack.

According to preliminary information, the incident took place when a group of armed men barged into house and fired multiple rounds, hitting the man, identified as Ravi, and others present at the spot.

 

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Outer North) Hareshwar Swami said Ravi died in the firing incident, while three others sustained gunshot injuries.

"Multiple rounds were fired... an investigation is ongoing. We're investigating all angles right now. Four people were shot. Three members of one family and a person, who was sitting there, were shot," the officer said.

The nature of the attack suggests it could be linked to a gang rivalry, though the exact motive is yet to be established, the police said.

Soon after the incident, multiple police teams rushed to the spot and cordoned off the area. Senior officers, including Swami, visited the scene and supervised the investigation.

Efforts are underway to identify and apprehend the accused, the officials said, adding that further details are awaited.
