Woman shot because her neighbor thought she was a monkey

A man in Malaysia shot his neighbor because he thought she was a monkey who was picking fruit from his tree.

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."

Note to self, don't climb neighbors fruit trees to pick fruit without thier knowledge.
