Eyewitnesses called the authorities after the animal was spotted running about, “screaming,” according to shoppers.

Animal control agents eventually captured the monkey, which, as it turns out, belongs to a couple who was shopping at the furniture store. The animal had apparently gotten out of its crate, and its owners’ car.

“It’s a smart monkey,” Toronto Police Sergeant Ed Dzingala told CBC News.

The monkey was eventually reunited with its owners.
