Man stoned to death by group of aggressive monkeys up a tree

A man has been stoned to death by a group of monkeys who hurled bricks at him from a tree.

Dharampal Singh, 72, was hit in the head and chest and was taken to hospital, where he died, according to police in India.

The monkeys had collected the bricks from a run down building nearby, it is believed.

Mr Singh’s brother Krishnapal told The Times of India: ‘Monkeys threw more than 20 bricks at Dharampal on Thursday.

‘Thrown from quite a height, the bricks were enough to kill him. These rogue monkeys are the real culprits and must pay for it.’

The victim was collecting pieces of dry wood for a fire when he was ambushed. Read more
