Monkey Attack
A lot of people still do not understand that wild animals are dangerous and that monkeys and other non-human primates and not friendly pets. Case in point Phyllis Gates and her pet monkey Alex:
"I wouldn't say he attacks people, but if he is provoked, he is like other exotic animals, they will attack," Gates said.Her neighbors say it does not matter if the monkey is provoked, he will attack anyway.
"She cannot control her monkey," Peggy Bearden said. "It attacked my grandson. Part of the material is gone in his shirt." Bearden lives across the street from Gates.
Next door, Gayla Schearf says Alex attacked her.
