Police in Xunyi county, Shaanxi province, finally caught up with a man who accidentally killed a fellow villager thinking he was a wild animal 10 years ago.

Wei Zhenhua, 53, a farmer by profession, went hunting for food on June 19, 1999. He saw some movement in the farmland and immediately fired a shot.

Wei's shot hit and killed a fellow villager surnamed Yang and he fled.

After 10 years of trying to track Wei, cops finally got a tip off about his whereabouts in early July and arrested him from Henan province on Friday.
