CENKiller: Mario Alberto Lizalde Reyes shot his best pal in the head before chopping off his penis
A drunk shot his best pal in the head before chopping off his penis and feeding it to his dog.
But he was so overcome with guilt after the 'punishment' killing he handed himself in to police as soon as he sobered up.
Drunk Mario Alberto Lizalde Reyes, 25, had been walking his dog with lifelong friend Mario Hernandez Banda, 24, when the two men started arguing.
Reyes said that Banda had tried to touch him "in a sexual way" in the neighbourhood of Parajes de San Isidro, in the city of Ciudad Juarez, in the north-central Mexican state of Chihuahua.
In a televised confession Reyes said: "We were both drunk and he tried touching me in a sexual way. After pushing him off, he went to urinate in an alley so I followed him, pulled out my gun and shot him in the head.
"I then took his knife off him and chopped off his penis as punishment and put it in a bag.
"But my dog was next to me and was sniffing at it so I decided to give it to him and he ate it."

Leaving the bloody body slumped in the alley, Reyes then casually finished walking his dog before going home to sleep off the booze.
But the next day he felt so guilty about what he had done, he decided to hand himself in.
A police spokesman said: "He came in covered in cuts and bruises and said he had fought with his stepfather when he told him what he had done.
"He then admitting killing his best friend and said that although his friend had tried sexually assaulting him, he was still a human being and didn’t deserve to die."
He now faces life in jail.
