Innocuous monkey gets reported for mooning around

385

FLORIDA: A monkey that managed to escape its owner in an Orlando, Florida, suburb was found goofing around the town, chewed on its neighbors’ mail, pulled molding off a police car and rocked back and forth on a street sign.

The monkey, Zeek was eventually caught when his owner returned home a short time later.

Sanford police officers responded to the call a neighbor made to report that a monkey was eating mail out of a mailbox.

Zeek jumped on the officers’ squad car and pulled some molding off the roof. The monkey also drank from a water bottle the officers offered as a distraction.

Sanford police officers took video of Zeek and posted it on the agency’s Facebook page. ‘Zeek had a little fun with our patrol car,’ the officers posted in one video.
