Akure—A hunter, Sunday Olubusade, has reportedly killed a 30-year-old palm wine taper, identified as Kehinde, who he mistook for an antelope in Ondo town, Ondo State.
Vanguard gathered that the victim, after the day’s work, went to a river to bathe when the hunter shot him.
A police source said when questioned, the suspect said: “I was hunting and I saw an antelope and shot at it. But later, I saw a man on the floor and I quickly went to the station to report. I don’t know what happened.
Few minutes after the unfortunate incident, police detectives were invited and his remains were moved to the morgue.
The police source told Vanguard: “Immediately, the incident occurred, the police were alerted and our detectives were mobilised to the scene and the corpse was evacuated to the mortuary.
