In a shocking incident, a man cut the throat of another person instead of a goat he was supposed to slaughter.

The incident occurred in Andhra Pradesh's Chittoor district during Sankranti celebrations on Sunday.

According to police, a man who was in an inebriated condition and holding a knife to slaughter a goat cut the throat of one of the persons holding the animal.

A profusely bleeding Suresh (35) was rushed to government hospital at Madanapalle where he succumbed to his injuries.
