An 18-year-old man was shot twice in his leg allegedly after he asked a person to move his car, which was not parked properly, in south Delhi's Chhatarpur area, the police said today.
The incident took place on Sunday when the victim was having street food with his friends, they said.
The police said that they received information on Sunday at 10:07 pm regarding gunshot injuries to a person.
