Man gets back at monkey for stealing his food

In another article, Briefly News reported that Vanderbijlpark man got his revenge on a troublesome monkey that kept on stealing his food.

He put food by his glass door and watched with pleasure as the little rascal struggled to open the door to touch the food. The gent was tired of the funny monkey business of having his grub nicked by the primate, so he devised a devious plan and swung it into motion.
