A teenaged son of a head constable allegedly opened fire at his neighbours, injuring four of them, following an altercation in Delhi, police said on Friday.
The incident took place on Thursday night in Meeta Nagar of north-east Delhi.
Avinash, the son of Head Constable Ramvir posted at Parliament Street police station, allegedly opened fire from a double barrel gun during the arguments with his neighbours.
He allegedly fired two-three rounds at his neighbours in which four were wounded.
