Man dressed in animal skin shot dead during hunt. Police said members of a shooting party made up of families opened fire when Christos Constantinou, 49, moved through the undergrowth.

The family members are thought to have been confused by the fact the victim was disguised in dark goat skins, which are often utilized to camouflage and or mislead their prey.

The groups had fanned out in pairs to track down an animal for a traditional dinner when the accident happened.

Police in the northern Greek town of Nemea, Chalkidiki, said Mr Constantinou was pronounced dead upon arrival at hospital. Go here for more.
