A MAN has been arrested for accidentally killing his father while hunting in Chongqing Municipality, a local newspaper reported yesterday.
Wu Yonghua accidentally shot his father in the heart when he mistakenly thought he was a wild boar while hunting on December 31, according to Chongqing Morning Post. He allegedly covered up the shooting by burying his father's body after saying his father was killed by his own gun which went off when he fell.
Villagers reported the case to police, which lead to Wu's arrest.
Wu, his father and three villagers went to Fengdu County in Chongqing to hunt boar on December 31. It was snowing and Wu's father went ahead, tracking a boar through the snow. He brushed against a tree shaking the branches and Wu, who was behind, thought the boar was there and shot immediately.
Wu rushed happily to the tree thinking he killed a boar, only to find his father holding his chest with his hands. His father reportedly said: "How could you shoot me?"
Wu shouted for help as he held his dying father in his arms, the report said.
In custody Wu allegedly said: "Next year would have been my father's 60th birthday. I planned a banquet for him, but now I can't even show my filial obedience."
The 32-year-old man had a meager income, which he used to support his wife and their two children.
