Maybe it was the banana stuck in the passenger-side key hole. Maybe it was the remnants of feces thrown at the windshield. We weren’t there, so we can’t say for sure.
But at least one resident in a Florida town thinks the recent string of car break-ins in the area can be blamed on – wait for it – a damn, dirty ape.
According to WTVT-TV in Tampa, a resident in the nearby town of Apollo Beach claims to have recently photographed a loose rhesus macaque monkey in the neighborhood, and he now thinks it is responsible for two break-ins.
Corey Beckman, who works for WTVT-TV as a photojournalist, said his cars were clearly broken into, but nothing was taken:
You’d think anybody breaking into a car would find it nice seeing a GPS there and an iPod but they just left it all sitting here. What does a monkey need with an iPod? Maybe it didn’t like my music.
Well, that all depends on how many Creed songs were on that iPod, Corey.
