Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu is saddened by the killing of an Indian in shooting in the US.

"Saddened to learn about the death of Srinivas Kuchibotla and injuries to Alok Madasani in Kansas," tweeted Naidu on Friday.

Both the men hailed from Telangana and were working as aviation programme managers at Garmin, an electronics manufacturer.

Kuchibhotla (32), from Hyderabad, was killed and Madasani, from Warangal town were injured when an American fired at them at a bar in Olathe, Kansas State, on Wednesday.

The attacker mistook the Indians for "Middle Easterners" and reportedly yelled "get out of my country".
