GANG OF DOZEN HOME INTRUDERS TRASH THIRD FLOOR APARTMENT, STEAL BLANKET, CURTAINS AND GIANT TEDDY BEAR

The burglars scaled the outside brick wall like a human fly and entered through a kitchen window, then left the same way

The gang emptied the apartment’s refrigerator and trashed the kitchen as they ate most of the food. They also emptied cabinets and drawers, tore up beds and made off with blankets, bed sheets and curtains. One burglar also stole a giant teddy bear. All but one of the thieves did not bother to hide their faces in front of witnesses, the lone exception being one burglar who disguised himself by hiding under one of the curtains as they made their getaway.

There were many witnesses to this crime but they could do nothing because the apartment’s occupants were away at the time. The intruders spent about 30 minutes inside the apartment. Witnesses reported that after they fled the apartment, some of the burglars played with the teddy bear like kids play with a doll. The witnesses also reported that they groomed the teddy bear like a monkey.

After interviewing a number of witnesses, the police now know that the bold burglars were members of the city’s notorious Chacma Gang.

Oh, I forgot to mention that this brazen crime took place recently in Cape Town, South Africa and that the burglars have been identified as a troop of chacma baboons. It turns out that home intrusions by baboons and other monkeys are quite common in South Africa.
