We love reading news like this: [lock the doors]
An escaped chimpanzee has been relocated to an animal refuge after wreaking havoc in a Kansas City neighborhood, fox4kc.com reports.
The 300-pound chimp, named “Sue,” was spotted wandering through a neighborhood on Tuesday, destroying a gate, fence and police car, according to the station.
“Sue” — short for “Suko,” escaped from her owner’s, get this … “home”. [Yeah, it lived in someone’s house]
Our favorite part:
Neighbor Michael Abrom reportedly said that he climbed up to his roof, hoping that the ape wouldn’t come after him.
Just kidding, this was our favorite part:
Witnesses reportedly said that at one point, Sue gave KCMO Animal Control officers the middle finger. She then pushed a trash can into a police car and then cracked the patrol car’s windshield with her hands, according to the station.
Besides wreaking havoc, the monkey also found time to tweet before being caught. [the account has already been disabled]
@Sue_themonkey_kc Think I’ll bust out of the cage today and smash a cop car.
