A 19-year-old man was shot dead following a dispute over a minor issue in outer Delhi's Mangolpuri area, police said on Tuesday.

They said the incident occurred late Monday night and the deceased was identified as Pankaj.

A nephew of the victim told PTI Videos that Pankaj had an altercation with three people from Mangolpuri's K Block.

“I don't know why they were fighting but when I spotted my uncle (Pankaj) over there, I intervened. The attackers were carrying pistols. They opened fire at him and fled,” he said.
