Momo the monkey’s taste of freedom is over
. The primate spurred an hourslong search on Indianapolis' east side after he escaped Wednesday evening from his owner's property. But the male patas monkey was finally captured safely Thursday morning, police said. Momo was captured by the brother of the monkey’s owner after police tracked the primate to the bathroom of a house under construction, said Lt. William Carter of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
After his capture, Momo was taken into the care of Indianapolis’ Animal Care Services, which turned him over to staff at the Indianapolis Zoo for now, said Katie Trennepohl, deputy director of Indianapolis Animal Care Services. While a permit is not required in Marion County to own such an animal, she said Momo will remain held under the advice of the county's prosecutor's office, which will work with Animal Care Services to determine whether Momo will be returned to his owner.
