A 25-year-old ice cream vendor was stabbed to death near Delhi's India Gate on Wednesday night after an argument, police officials said on Thursday.

While the vendor, identified as Prabhakar was stabbed to death during a fight, police said it seems to be a case of personal enmity, adding that suspect has been apprehended.

A case of murder is being registered under Section 302 (murder) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). CCTV cameras are being scanned so that the accused can be identified, Delhi Police said.

According to police Prabhakar was standing near his trolley when he was attacked by a person on Wednesday night. He collapsed after being stabbed, a police officer said.

People who spotted him lying on the ground informed the police.

"Prima facie, it is suspected to be a case of personal enmity as we have apprehended a suspect," the officer said, adding that futher investigations are on.

Prabhakar was a native of Uttar Pradesh's Etawah, police said.

In another similar case, two men in an inebriated condition murdered a street vendor in Haryana's Gurugram after an argument between them, police said on Wednesday.

Sumit (20) and Aakash (23) were on Tuesday night partying and consuming alcohol when around 10:30 pm an argument broke out between them and street vendor Arvind (32) near Wazirabad market, SHO (sector 53) Rajender Kumar said.

During the brawl, the two men smashed a glass bottle on Arvind’s head and fled, police said.

After getting information, a police team reached the spot and took the injured to a hospital where he succumbed to injuries.
