When police arrived, they knew immediately they had quite a hairy problem on their hands. The perpetrator, identified as Zeek, was spotted eating mail right out of a resident's box. He also took a few moments out to swing from a signpost on a street corner.

Hoping to bring the macaque's monkey business to an end, officers attempted to corral the critter. They soon found out Zeek was willing to take a break from his antics if given a bottle of water, but that realization didn't occur until after he managed "to pull molding from one of our patrol cars," the agency wrote on its Facebook page.
