A 22-year-old man was shot at by four persons following a scuffle between them in south Delhi's Tigri area, police said Saturday.

The incident took place on Friday, they said.

The brother of the injured man, Rashid, a resident of JJ Camp, informed the police about the firing, they added.

Rashid sustained a bullet injury on one of his legs, a senior police officer said.

One of the accused, Honey Singh, was apprehended at the spot, he said.

The victim was first taken to Batra Hospital and was later referred to AIIMS Trauma Centre, he added.

A case has been registered on the basis of Rashid's statement, the officer said.

The victim told police that he had a scuffle with the accused persons a few days ago as well over a petty issue, the officer said, adding that it is suspected to be a case of personal enmity.
