"KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - A Malaysian man shot and killed
his wife after he mistook her for a monkey picking fruit in a
tree behind their house, the New Straits Times said on
Wednesday.
The man, 70, is being held by police for causing death
through recklessness after he fired a shotgun at what he
thought was a monkey in a mangosteen tree on Monday, the
newspaper said.
His wife, 68, had used a ladder to climb into the tree and
was picking the tropical fruit when she was shot. She was
pronounced dead on arrival at a hospital, the paper said. The
couple lived in central Malaysia and had raised 13 children."
