The incident is reported to have taken place in South Delhi at around 10:30 am. The police said that the family of the victim tried to save the 19-year-old but was frightened by the accused. Right after stabbing his friend, the accused managed to escape even as the family raised an alarm. The victim was rushed to the hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
