A 19-year-old youth was shot dead in Delhi's Shahdara following an altercation over a minor dispute, the police said on Sunday.

Three juveniles have been apprehended in the case, they said.

The incident occurred on Saturday in the Kailash Nagar area.

"A PCR call reporting a shooting was received at the Gandhi Nagar police station. Teams were rushed to the spot immediately. The victim was identified as Sufian and had suffered serious injuries. He was rushed to Jag Pravesh Hospital where he was declared dead," a police officer said.

During the initial investigation, the police found that an argument broke out between Sufian and the accused over a cap.
