A 19-year-old man was stabbed to death while another person got injured in northeast Delhi’s Seemapuri as a petty fight between two minor boys from a coaching institute escalated, with others getting involved the next day, police said Friday.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Rohit Meena said they first received information around 9.20 pm on Thursday that two persons with stab injuries were admitted to the GTB Hospital.
He said when police reached the hospital, Harshit Bhardwaj (19), a resident of DLF Bhopura here, was already declared brought dead, while Shadab (22), a resident of Kalandar Colony here, was undergoing treatment.
He said it all started on Wednesday when Bhardwaj’s younger brother, who is a minor, got into an argument with another juvenile and both slapped each other, the DCP said.
The two minors are from the same coaching centre.
