Florida police have apprehended Zeek, after the primate perp escaped from his human this morning and went monkeying around the neighborhood.
Damages from Zeek’s great but brief adventure are as follows:
1. Some eaten pieces of mail (a federal offense);
2. Torn trim on a police cruiser (destruction of public property and vandalism);
3. Sitting on a street sign (obstruction of traffic and loitering).
Otherwise, he himself was unharmed, according to the incident report.
“Zeek had a little fun with our patrol car,” Sanford officers posted on their Facebook page later today, along with a few humorous images of the suspect whilst still at large.
The monkey was successfully lured into custody and returned to his home with bottled spring water, they noted. No charges were filed against him.
