Deputies responding to reports of a subject monkeying around found an actual monkey near a Missouri highway on Friday afternoon, officials said
The spider monkey, wearing what the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office described as a tutu, was found around 4 p.m. It had been staying at a nearby home and got outside after managing to open a door.
"After careful negotiations and some coaxing, deputies were able to get close enough to go 'hands on' with the subject and bring this bananas situation under control without incident," the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office wrote in a Facebook post.
Attorneys for President-elect Donald Trump asked Attorney General Merrick Garland to remove special counsel Jack Smith from his post and either decline to release Smith's upcoming report detailing his investigations into the president-elect or hand over the matter to Trump's incoming administration, according to a letter released Monday.
