A 45-year-old man died when his gun went off by mistake at the hands of his son in Nangali village on the outskirts of Amritsar city late on Monday evening, the police said. Identified as Rupinder Singh, the deceased was a landlord in the area.
Inspector Amarjit Singh, station house officer (SHO) of the Kambo police station, said the deceased brought his rifle home after getting it repaired. “His son Amarbir Singh picked it up but he was not aware that it was loaded with cartridges. He accidently fired at his father,” he said.
