<p>A pet monkey was killed after attacking a woman in Oklahoma, and the victim is detailing the injuries that she suffered at the hands of this animal.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">The Animal Evaded Authorities Before Being Shot By A Citizen</h3>
<p>According to a social media <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=504185098585598&;set=a.385645767106199" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a> made by the Dickson Police Department, the incident unfolded earlier this week, and it began when police got a call about a monkey being spotted on someone&#8217;s front porch.</p>
<p>Authorities note that, after they arrived on the scene, the animal &#8220;jumped on the rear of his patrol vehicle.&#8221; Then, authorities note that the monkey &#8220;ran towards the victim and climbed onto her head&#8221; before proceeding to injure her.</p>
<p>The victim was then transferred to a hospital to receive treatment, and the primate evaded capture by scurrying off into the woods</p>
<p>We should also note that the officers located the animal&#8217;s owners nearby, though they were ultimately unable to capture it. However, a family friend of the victim later arrived on the scene and fatally shot the monkey.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Victim Recounts Monkey Attack: &#8216;Ripped My Ear In Half Like You Would A Piece Of Paper&#8217;</h3>
<p>In addition to the police statement, <a href="https://www.kten.com/story/48541964/escaped-pet-monkey-dead-after-biting-dickson-woman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KTEN</a> provided further information via a sit-down with the victim, identified as Brittany Parker.</p>
<p>Parker recounted the experience, noting that the animal &#8220;ran up [her] back.&#8221; She also added, &#8220;[The monkey] ripped my ear in half like you would a piece of paper.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;He ran up my back and jumped onto my head, pulled hair out, and then ripped my ear in half like you would a piece of paper.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>She also shared that the family friend who ultimately killed the monkey was also attacked, as the animal &#8220;slapped him across the face.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We called him and he came over here, and after I had been attacked, the monkey went out to his vehicle, slapped him across the face, and pulled his hair.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The outlet also points out that, as monkeys are &#8220;considered domesticated animals under Oklahoma law,&#8221; the owner didn&#8217;t need a permit to own the primate.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">What do you think about the overall situation, and would you ever keep a primate as a pet? Additionally, how would you feel if one was being kept as a pet nearby?</p>
