AMMAN — Police on Tuesday arrested a man who allegedly shot and killed his brother a day earlier in Tafileh Governorate, a police official said.

The victim’s older brother reportedly shot him with a pump-action gun at their home in Tafileh, some 180km southwest of Amman, on Sunday, the police official told The Jordan Times.

“The victim was rushed to hospital and he died on Monday,” the source added.

He refused to reveal a motive other than “disputes between two brothers”.

“We cannot reveal any information at this time and we are still investigating the incident,” the police official told The Jordan Times.
