The Police Command in Osun has arrested a hunter, who allegedly shot and killed the 78-year-old Imam of Alaguntan village in Orile-Owu, Aiyedaade Local Government Area, whom he mistook for antelope.

The command’s Spokesperson, SP Yemisi Opalola, made this known during the parade of criminal suspects at the state police headquarters in Osogbo on Tuesday.

She said: “On April 17, at about 11:30 a.m, a complainant from Ogbere Oloba area of Ibadan reported at a police station that his father, one Adegun Yusuf, 78, the Imam of Alaguntan village in Orile-Owu, was shot dead by a hunter from the same village.

“The suspect was later arrested and he confessed to the alleged crime.

“He (the suspect) explained that he was on a hunting expedition when he saw an antelope in the bush, which he shot at with his Dane gun, but that he was surprised when he went to pick the antelope and met Baba Imam on the ground.”

Opalola said that the suspect would be charged to court after the completion of investigation.

I guess the Imam is also a hunter. According to some people, hunters turn to the animals they want to deceive , but you must let other hunters know so that they won't gun you down.From punch news (Facebook)

This is super strange
There's been countless stories (real-life) of the African antelope being a mysterious animal.... This is another one of such stories and true life occurrence, the hunter might have honestly seen an antelope which morphed into human being... So many mysteries in this life shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked

The question should be what was the Imam doing in the forest at that time ?

ah ah. They should take him to the prison to see the real antelopes. He should never be set free to make such mistake again. This time he was caught hence he gave this excuse. Imagine how many antelopes he had killed over the decades.

You are talking to a skull-miner or an advocate of it who is trying to normalize the evil act or derail people's reaction to such evil act

Poor reporting.

You could get the name of the victim but can tell us that of the hunter who killed the imam.
