A man was arrested in Andhra Pradesh's Visakhapatnam after he allegedly set a wine shop on fire after he was denied alcohol.

The incident occurred after an argument broke out between the man and the shop staff refused service as it was closing time.

The accused later returned with a petrol tank and poured fuel on the shop and lit a fire. The staffers ran away from the shop which burned and property worth more than ₹1.5 lakh was destroyed.

"A case was filed against the accused under Sections 307 and 436 of the IPC," said Inspector Rama Krishna, adding that the accused was taken into police custody.
