According to a police report, Musibau, who lives at Owode Street in Igbara-Odo, committed the alleged murder around 2:30a.m on August 5, 2013.
Spokesman for Police in the state, Mr Victor Babayemi, said the suspect, while being interrogated said he mistook the deceased for an antelope while they were hunting in the bush at night.
Remains of the victim have been deposited at the mortuary while autopsy was said to have been conducted on him.

Babayemi said investigation was still going on the alleged murder case, adding that the suspect would be charged to court as soon as investigation is completed.
