Monkey’s dog attack leads to crossbow kill

A 25-year-old Cambodian man who ate his hunting partner’s dog after it was killed in a monkey attack was shot dead by the canine’s owner with a crossbow.

Police said the suspect and the victim were friends who were hunting together in Kratie’s Snuol district.



It is understood the suspect shot his friend because he would not help save his dog from being killed in a monkey attack. The victim then took the dead dog home to eat.

When the suspect saw this, he fired his crossbow at his friend killing him instantly. Police say the suspect confessed to the crime following his arrest.
