A 15-year-old boy was allegedly beaten to death by two juveniles of the same age after he advised the duo to ride their bicycle carefully.
The incident took place at around 9:15 pm yesterday when the victim identified as Himanshu was walking towards his home in Ranjit Nagar area of Central Delhi, according to police.
Meanwhile, the two accused juveniles, who were riding their bicycle at a fast speed rammed into him.
"Although, Himanshu was not hurt in the incident, he advised the duo to go slow and ride carefully. The harmless advice, however, enraged the two teenagers who started an argument with him," said a police official.

After he collapsed on the road, they fled from the spot.
Later, Himanshu was spotted by a passerby who immediately made a PCR call after which he was rushed to a nearby hospital where doctors pronounced him brought dead, the official said.
A case under section 302 of IPC (murder) was registered against the duo at Ranjit Nagar police station and subsequently, both the juveniles were apprehended, while one of them studies in class IX, the other one is a school dropout, the official added.
Himanshu's father works as a tailor in the area.
