How Was Ravi Sharma Shot Dead?The accused, Ajay and Monty, first got into a road rage fight with Sharma's family when they were asked to wait while the women were sitting in a car outside the house. According to reports, a furious dispute broke out before the accused fled. Around 8:30 p.m. the same evening, the two are said to have returned and opened fire on Sharma's home. The house's gate was struck by gunfire, but no one was hurt. Sharma called the emergency helpline 112 to notify the police, but the culprits had already left before the officers got there. After this firing on the gate, Sharma went to the Muradnagar police station with his family to lodge a formal complaint. Sharma stayed outside the station's grounds as a few of his relatives went inside.
Sharma tried to approach the accused after spotting their vehicle close to the station, according to DCP Rural Surendra Nath Tiwari. Two of the rounds that the accused allegedly fired in retaliation wounded Sharma. He was taken to a local hospital, but while receiving treatment, he passed away.
