Chaos prevailed on MG Road in Gurgaon on Wednesday morning after some unknown gunmen opened fire on a moving SUV that reportedly resulted in the death of one person.

Tanya Rai, an eyewitness, who was stuck on the MG Road due to the incident has reportedly said the auto-rickshaw was driving on the wrong side of the road, and therefore he got injured so badly.

A senior police officer told NDTV that Kumar is a 'known criminal' and was the target of the attack. He is a history-sheeter and was recently released on bail, police said.

"This seems to be a case of gang war. We are still inspecting the matter," a policeman at the crime scene has said.

The shooting took place on MG Road outside the Central Mall in Gurgaon, just ahead of IFFCO Chowk, a major landmark in the area.
