Man, 30, arrested after crashing at 100 miles-per-hour in car with pet monkey on South 128th Street in Burien, Washington
Driver had a monkey on his back even before he got arrested
Police Capt. Bryan Howard says responding officers identified the 30-year-old Burien man easily — because he still had a monkey on his back.
They arrested him for fleeing the scene of a crash. But the monkey refused to be held by officers. They had to call the man’s mother to pick up the animal.
