The child in the officer took hold
And he made some gestures at the simians.
At this, a monkey sprang from a nearby ledge onto Thakur's shoulder.
It pulled at his hair and then climbed up a wall.
Thakur again called out to the monkey, which obliged. It came down to his shoulder, but
This time it snatched his spectacles.
Thakur did not lose patience.
He began calling the monkey again,
This time to retrieve his glasses.
The simian must have suspected something.
It threw away the glasses and again jumped on to Thakur's shoulder.
It pulled his head, bit off his left ear, and fled.
Bloodied and screaming, Thakur slumped on the road. His neighbors rushed out and took him to hospital.

Hello Noah - this one is wonderful too. It's a strange and slightly disturbing world your stories live in. At first all is recognisable and apparently normal. Then, through bizarre details and actions they enter a borderland where people might wonder if they are sleeping or awake. And I like that a lot. So I hope you'll be back soon with more...

Hi Adam,
I'm glad you like my stuff. But, technically, it's not realy mine. Everything here on My Blog is taken from a real news story. Every detail, every headline is true. If you do a news search you can probably find the original stories.
Ha ha, very interesting... yes, in fact, I found most of the "originals". Wouldn't have figured out Minyak was in fact an orangutang! But this certainly doesn't make your stories worse. Now I just wonder what's up with this monkey-fascination of yours?! hehe... really nice subject though.
