A 24-year-old man was injured after being shot at by two unidentified motorcycle-borne assailants in Delhi’s New Usmanpur area, police said on Monday.
The incident occurred on Sunday evening when the victim, identified as Abdul Wahid, was returning home on a scooter along with his cousins after closing his shop in Gandhi Nagar, they said.
According to the police, Wahid, a resident of Jagjit Nagar, was riding the scooter with his cousins Kalam (24) and Zahid (13) when two men approached them near 2nd Pushta.
