Monkeys attacked a cemetery during the burial of a dead man in Saudi Arabia, prompting the mourners to quickly bury the body and flee.

A YouTube film published in Sabq daily showed several monkeys racing inside the cemetery in the western town of Taif after all mourners fled the site.

The paper quoted residents as saying the monkeys came from the nearby mountains and that authorities need to act to stop them from profaning the graves.
