A construction worker surrendered to the police after "accidentally" shooting his boss dead with a hunting gun in Louyan county, Fujian province, last week.

Jiang, 25, was a good friend of his boss, surnamed Deng. The two were watching television at a colleague's home near their worksite, when Jiang spotted a gun in the corner and started fiddling with it.

"The gun accidentally went off and hit Deng in the head. He died on the spot," Jiang confessed.

Police have also detained the owner of the weapon for illegal possession.
