A monkey is in custody in Texas after it went bananas around a neighborhood and bit an elderly woman.
Police say the maniacal monkey got loose from its owner and ran around the neighborhood biting people, including an 84-year-old woman who had to be taken to the hospital. Animal control officers were eventually able to capture the crazy ape. It is perfectly legal in Texas to own a monkey as long as the owner has the proper permits. It's not known if this monkey's owner will be fined.

U.S. Customs and Border agents at Los Angeles International Airport seized and destroyed 450 wrapped tamales that a passenger attempted to smuggle into the country from Mexico.
The problem isn't so much that the man was traveling with so many tamales -- though it is odd, for sure. But the U.S. prohibits the transportation of pork products across international borders to prevent the spread of disease. The passenger initially was up front with customs agents about traveling with food, but told them he wasn't carrying pork.
The food was taken away and he was slapped with a $1000 fine.

A Florida woman says she was simply doing some shopping at a Walmart earlier this week when a man ran up from behind and attacked her with a pillow.
The victim, who wished to remain anonymous, says she suffered scratches from the pillow, which is really the worst possible endorsement for a pillow. She says after the man hit her, he stared and laughed at her. She notified store employees, who called the police.
According to the police report, the 18-year-old attacker says he does it as a way to meet people.
