A shooting incident in Delhi's Jauhri Pur locality left one woman injured and claimed the life of a young man on Tuesday morning. Police said 32-year-old Neeraj allegedly fired at his 48-year-old neighbour, Rajwati, hitting her in the leg. Following the assault, Neeraj retreated into a room in his residence and shot himself fatally. Officers recovered a revolver from the scene and launched an investigation into the circumstances leading to the violence. Rajwati, who sustained injuries in the shooting, was rushed to a nearby medical facility for treatment. The exact motive behind the attack remains under investigation, though preliminary reports suggest the incident may have stemmed from a personal dispute between the two neighbours. Police are examining the sequence of events and have registered a case as further details emerge.
