Monkeys kill Delhi deputy mayor

I'm sure this is not the first time this has happened. These things scared the hell out of me in Delhi and Mumbai (I never saw them in the city, only on Elephanta Island)

BBC NEWS | South Asia | Monkeys kill Delhi deputy mayor:
"The deputy mayor of the Indian capital Delhi has died a day after being attacked by a horde of wild monkeys. SS Bajwa suffered serious head injuries when he fell from the first-floor terrace of his home on Saturday morning trying to fight off the monkeys. The city has long struggled to counter its plague of monkeys, which invade government complexes and temples, snatch food and scare passers-by."

It almost sounds laughable but for the fact that it's horrifying. Monkeys have always creeped me out since The Wizard of Oz....
