Here’s something you don’t expect to hear about in Ohio. Police in Cincinnati say they are probing multiple reports of five loose monkeys on the west side of the city. Residents have reported seeing five monkeys swinging from trees in St. Joseph’s Cemetery in the East Prince Hill area Wednesday night (April 7th), and one witness captured video that appears to show the animals in the trees, but police say the footage is not clear enough to confirm that the animals were monkeys. Police say that if there are actually monkeys on the loose, they likely escaped from a private collection, but no one has reported any exotic primates missing. Police say anyone who spots monkeys in Cincinnati should keep a safe distance and contact the department. "There's not much we can do until we have a confirmed sighting by Cincinnati police," David Orban, the zoo's director for animal science and strategy
