(UPI) Police in Ohio said a "vicious" escaped monkey was spotted running loose on a road before being recaptured by its owner.
The Braceville Police Department said it received several 911 calls Monday about a monkey running loose on Braceville Robinson Road.
The department shared video of the monkey running loose, climbing on a resident's car and making its way to the roof of a home.
The monkey, named Teeko, was recaptured by its owner, Anthony Thomas. Thomas said his pet escaped Sunday night.
Police released audio of a 911 call where a Marathon gas station worker referred to the animal as "vicious," but there were no reports of the primate causing any injuries.
