Jason Biggs 'attacked by monkey'

Jason Biggs has been attacked by a monkey on holiday.

According to The Sun, the comedian was in Gibraltar with his American Pie co-star Eddie Kaye Thomas to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the film.

A source said: "They were hiking in the woods when this monkey suddenly leapt on Jason from a tree and tried to bite his face off.

"Jason's travelling companions managed to fend the beast off and Jason thankfully wasn't seriously hurt, just shaken up."

Thomas's spokesperson added: "The monkey tried to attack Jason and steal food out of his bag but Eddie fended him off and saved the day."

Biggs decided to fly home early following the incident.
