Four people were arrested by Mumbai Police within eight hours after they allegedly shot dead a rival criminal in crowded Chunabhatti area by firing at least 16 rounds, a police officer said on Monday. The accused and the deceased man have had criminal backgrounds.
The incident, reminiscent of the old days of gang wars in the metropolis, occurred at around 3.30 pm on Sunday, leaving one Sumit Yerunkar dead. Four residents of Azad Galli locality in Chunabhatti, including a minor girl, were injured in the indiscriminate firing.
