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 25-year-old Akhil Sai Mahankali, who died Monday.
Police and firefighters found Mahankali with a life-threatening gun wound around 9:30 p.m. Sunday in the 3200 block of East Avenue. They took him to the hospital, where doctors declared him dead, the Montgomery Advertiser reported.
Both Mahankali and the defendant are from Montgomery, the capital of Alabama, and added that Goli is currently in the Montgomery prison.
Mahankali, who is believed to be from Telangana, arrived in the US about 13 months ago. He is studying at a university and is also working part-time at a gas station.
