No Monkeying Around: MMS ‘Knucklehead of the Day’ Award
Join the Moose Morning Show every weekday morning, just before 6am, we hand out our 'Knucklehead of the Day' award.
Today's KOD goes to a Florida car theif who had an accomplice – a capuchin monkey.
This guy allegedly stole a car he found unlocked with the keys hidden under a floor mat. Deputies found him after he apparently crashed the car into a ditch, with a monkey clinging to his body.
He told the police he purchased the primate about four years ago, but investigators found he did not have a permit for the exotic pet. He's been arrested for grand theft auto charges along with possession of an exotic animal without a permit.
