KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - Police said a man shot his neighbor, mistaking her for a monkey as she was picking sapodilla fruit in his tree.Granted, we have had crazed pet chimps attack people and crazed New York Post columnists use monkeys in their cartoons, but as a rule very few Americans are shot each year after being mistaken for a monkey.
Yahaya Othman, police chief in eastern Pahang state, said the woman was gathering fruit Thursday when her neighbor shot her.
The man came home and saw rustling in the tree and fired into it, Yahaya said. "Then there was screaming ... and only then did he know it was his neighbor."
