New Delhi: A 19-year-old woman was allegedly shot at and critically injured by a group of burglars in south Delhi’s Moti Bagh area in the wee hours today.
The woman has been identified as Neeru, who lives on the first floor of a building which houses an electronic appliance shop. She is stated to be in a critical condition, a police official said.
The group of burglars targeted the electronic goods shop and Neeru woke up by the sound. When she came downstairs to check, the burglars allegedly fired two rounds at her.
The burglars then fled the spot with television sets worth several lakhs.
Meanwhile, the police were informed and Neeru was rushed to hospital.
“A case has been registered and a team has been set up to nab the accused at the earliest,” the senior official said.
