A 45-year-old man died in an incident of road rage after he was assaulted by three persons outside an eatery in SGM Nagar here last night following an argument. Three persons have been arrested.

Lakhmi Chand, a driver, was assaulted after he entered into a heated exchange with a person whose vehicle had hit his motorcycle.
