Kurnool: A man was stoned to death by a mob comprising of hundred persons suspecting him as a member of the Pardhi gang at Sukravarampeta in Adoni on late Thursday night. According to the police, the residents of Sukravarampeta came across a person loitering in their colony.

As the person was peculiar in his appearance, the residents suspected him as a member of the Pardhi gang. With the suspicion, the residents approached him and asked about his identity. Of not finding response from the man to their questions, residents attacked him.

In the attack, the stranger suffered head injuries and began to bleed profusely. On receiving information, the I-Town police rushed to the spot and tried to control the residents. But, the irate residents pushed the cops aside and continued their attack on helpless man.
