A 45-year-old American working for the US Army has been arrested in Germany for threatening to chop off his neighbours' heads with an axe over their nonstop blaring of World Cup vuvuzela horns.

The civilian employee was arrested by German cops and turned over to US military police.

The man, living in the Bavarian city of Weiden, made the threat during the World Cup match between Netherlands and Cameroon on Thursday.

According to reports, he was drunk, and following the constant honking of vuvuzelas, he walked over to the neighbours' house and screamed “I will kill you!” 

He has not been charged yet, but he could face fines and jail time for allegedly making the threat and a “slander” charge for calling his neighbours names, The New York Post reports.
