Monkey accused of biting kids being tested for diseases
MARTINSBURG, W.Va. -- A pet monkey accused of biting three Berkeley County children is under quarantine so it can be tested for diseases.
Three girls in the same southern Berkeley County mobile home park were bitten in late July.
The county's Animal Control Department has confiscated the monkey. Its owner has not been identified.
Berkeley County Animal Control Officer Ray Strine said he hopes the monkey is not confined long at his office. The monkey urinates on others when it's agitated.
