Coimbatore: In a rare incident, a monkey attacked a four-year-old girl on Hopes-Vilankurichi Road last Wednesday. The simian attacked the girl when she was using the bathroom of her house, Coimbatore Medical College Hospital (CMCH) sources said. “Hearing her cries, her mother rushed to her rescue and tried to push the monkey off. When she failed, she alerted her neighbours, who managed to chase the animal away. The child suffered head injury and was bleeding,” she said. The child’s parents first rushed her to a private hospital, which referred her to CMCH. “After giving first aid, she was admitted to the paediatric ward for observation. We treated the wound to ensure it didn’t get infected and put sutures to close it,” said CMCH dean Dr A Nirmala. “We also administered anti-rabies injections. The girl was discharged on Saturday.”
