A Dale County man on trial for murder pled guilty to a lesser charge Tuesday in Ozark.

56-year-old Johnny Draugh is accused in the stabbing death of Ronnie Miller in Daleville.

The two men were arguing over the title to a vehicle in February of last year when the disagreement turned deadly.

District Attorney Kirk Adams says the two men had been drinking heavily prior to the altercation.

Draugh pled guilty to manslaughter and is free on bond. He will be sentenced at a later date.
