A man was shot to death and three others sustained bullet injuries in an attack over rivalry between two groups at Saudagarkandi village in Raipura upazila of Narsingdi district on Sunday morning.
The deceased was identified as Momen Mia, 55, son of Dhon Mia of the upazila.
The injured – Mobarak, 65, Nazmul Hossain, 30, Ruhul Amin, 37 – were taken to Raipura Upazila Health Complex.
