New Delhi, Jul 2 (PTI) A 28-year-old man was allegedly stabbed to death after resisting a robbery attempt in outer north Delhi’s Siraspur, with police apprehending two juveniles, officials said on Thursday.

The victim, Adesh Kumar was found lying in a pool of blood near a drain outside a house after police received a PCR call during the intervening night of Wednesday and Thursday.

Despite the injury, Kumar managed to run nearly 500 metres before collapsing close to his residence. He was taken to Burari Hospital, where doctors declared him dead.

According to the police, the two juveniles had planned a robbery in the area, with one restraining Kumar while the other attempted to snatch his mobile phone and valuables.
