A monkey in the northern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh has rained down banknotes on people, reports say.
Surprised holidaymakers in the scenic pine forest of Shimla, the state capital, ran around, collecting the falling notes for nearly an hour on Sunday, eyewitnesses said.
Reports said the simian stole 10,000 rupees ($165; £100) from a nearby home.
The monkey had entered the house to look for food, but when it did not find anything to eat, it took the money.
There are some 300,000 monkeys in the state and Shimla has long been a haven for the animals.
Macaque monkeys are considered sacred by Hindus, who often feed them. Full story...
