Two persons have been arrested for killing a 34-year-old man in Delhi's Geeta Colony after fight following collision of their vehicles, officials said Friday.

On Monday, Sushil Chauhan was driving back home when a scooter hit his car near Geeta Colony flyover, Meghna Yadav, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara), said.
Chauhan came out of the car and an argument started. Aftab and Ramesh, who were riding the scooter, took out a gun and shot Chauhan. Another man of their group soon came on a bike and also attacked Chauhan with a knife, police said. All three fled the spot.
