Monkey Is Trapped by Banana
A fire truck, an aerial ladder, three firemen and an SPCA task force were needed to bring a monkey down from the rooftop of 333 Mickle Street, across from the Walt Whitman House, after five days at large. Once an SPCA trap baited with bananas caught him, Firemen Wesley Faust and George Hennessy carried the cage down the ladder while acting Capt. James Jones held the safety rope.
