An Alabama man has been charged with killing his drinking buddy with a Civil War sword replica outside a mobile home in Mississippi.

Stanley Pace, 47, allegedly chased his friend down the street armed with the sword before stabbing him friend to death after the two men fought on Friday night during a drinking session.

Police say that Pace then dragged the mutilated body - that had more than 20 punctures and cuts - of his victim Ronnie Duke, 43, down the side of the road and covered it up.

'He went back the next night, got the body and took it to a garbage dump near Old Highway 6.

'There are no other suspects at this time,' Monroe's County Sheriff Cecil Cantrell told the Monroe Journal.

County Coroner Alan Gurley said that Duke’s body was found at 12.15pm on Monday down a steep embankment four miles north of Highway 278.

The coroner added that Mr Duke sustained the stab wounds early on Saturday morning.

Pace was reportedly placed under investigation after Mr Duke was reported missing on Sunday and was held at the Monroe County jail while waiting for arraignment.
