What Led To Parking Dispute
Dhankhar's family lives on the first floor of a building in Sector 21C, while the accused, identified as Monu Sharma, lives on the third floor of the same building. The two families had a dispute over a dog defecating in the parking lot and the parking of vehicles, police said.

Dhankar's objection to the parked car triggered a heated argumentment after which the accused opened fire at him. The accused fled with his family after the incident.

Police reached the spot after receiving information from Dhankhar's son, Shaurya, and recovered cartridge cases.
