New Delhi, Dec 18 In a case of road rage, a middle-aged taxi driver was thrashed to death by two cousins in west Delhi area, said an officer, adding that the accused youths have been arrested.

According to police, on Sunday evening, at around 5:30 p.m., a road rage incident took place near Tagore Garden Metro Station in the Rajouri Garden police station area.
