Houston:
An Indian national has been arrested and charged with manslaughter in connection with the death of a compatriot in the US state of Alabama, police said.
Montgomery police officers charged Raviteja Goli, 23, with manslaughter in the death of Akhil Sai Mahankali, 25, who died on Monday.
Police and firefighters found Mahankali at about 9:30 p.m. Sunday with a life-threatening gunshot wound in the 3200 block of Eastern Boulevard. They took him to the hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead, the Montgomery Advertiser newspaper reported.
Both Mahankali and the defendant are from Montgomery, the capital of Alabama, it said, adding that Goli is now in Montgomery Jail.
Mahankali, who is said to be from Telangana, arrived in the US about 13 months ago. He studied at a university and also did a part-time job at a gas station.
