17-Year-Old Critically Injured in Shooting After Dispute at Delhi EateryPreviousNext

A 17-year-old boy was critically injured after being shot at an eatery in South East Delhi's Amar Colony on May 26. The incident followed an argument when a group of boys passed by and one allegedly brushed past the victim's chair, prompting a confrontation. The group left but returned minutes later, and one member fired a shot before fleeing. The victim was initially treated at Moolchand Hospital and then shifted to AIIMS Trauma Centre, where he remains in critical but stable condition. Police are investigating, reviewing CCTV footage, and seeking the suspects.
