A crazed monkey escaped its enclosure last week in North Carolina and attacked a woman before being killed by a CCL holder.
Crazy can happen anywhere, but one HVAC repairman in North Carolina was ready.
The Charlotte Observer reported last week that a pet Japanese macaque had escaped its enclosure and attacked a neighbor woman in the coastal town of Shallotte, NC.
The primate ?just went bananas,? Shallotte Detective Sgt. John Holman told the Observer. The monkey bit and scratched the neighbor?s arms and legs as she stood talking to an HVAC repairman outside her home. After the monkey began to draw blood, he ran across the street to a different neighbor?s house and started beating on a glass door.

The HVAC repairman, who police have not named, approached the macaque, who turned and began moving towards the man. That?s when the CCL holder pulled out his Glock handgun and shot the monkey once, killing it.
Police say the man?s license is in order, and he won?t be charged with a crime.
?He was protecting the citizen and the neighborhood,? Holman told the Observer.
As for the owner of the monkey, police say he owns several other exotic pets, but he was properly licensed to own them. He did admit to police that the now-deceased macaque was particularly ?aggressive.?
In that the primate wouldn?t be unique. Macaques frequently attack tourists in New Delhi, India, where they live in large numbers and interact with humans daily. If you find yourself facing down an angry macaque (and you?re less prepared than our HVAC repairman), experts say you should surrender your food, avoid eye contact, and not show your teeth.

Not sure if the monkey could be trusted, he pulled his Trusty Glock just in case it made a threatening move.

Good thing the HVAC Guy didn't have a 1911. He would have probably had to empty a magazine in order to hit it. [:0][B)][:D][}:)]

The Rock Apes on Gibraltar like to come up behind you, jump on your back and steal whatever is in your shirt pocket then haul ass. Ballpoint pens are one of their favorites. I never heard of one of them trying to hurt anybody though. They will put on a show if they?re trying to impress their sweetie. 0
