A 24-year-old man was repeatedly stabbed and then shot dead following a quarrel in south Delhi's Tigri area, police said on Thursday.
The victim has been identified as Rohit, a resident of JJ camp Tigri in Sangam Vihar, they said.
"Police received information at around 11.10 PM on Wednesday about the incident. The victim was rushed to Batra hospital where he succumbed to injuries," a senior police officer said.
During investigation it was found that Rohit had an altercation with another person named Akash on Wednesday afternoon.
