Three people, including a child, were killed in a fire that broke out at a scrap shop in West Delhi’s Kirti Nagar area late on Thursday night.
Police said that two bodies are yet to be identified but the third body has been identified as 20 year-old Rohit, a driver and resident of Kamla Nehru Camp.
Prima facie, it has come to notice that Rohit came to the spot and started to douse the fire but got trapped in the fire and fell in the drain, police said.
According to fire department, a call was received at around 10.50 pm and seven fire tenders were rushed to the spot.
However, the fire from the scrap shop soon engulfed a small shanty built above the shop where family of one Monu, who worked at the scrap shop, lived.
