    I once handled a news call about a deer in the city swimming pool.

    I wish I was kidding.

    "When contacted, an official with the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo said they do not have a gorilla or any other large primate matching that description. "

    I don't know why, but that part of the story cracked me up.

    I can imagine that conversation:

    Zoo: Well what did he look like?
    Cops: Well, he was hairy and dragged his knuckles.

    Leslie Nielsen: "What about the gorilla?"

    Robert Hays: "Well, he's nine feet tall and brown. But that's not important right now."

    Well, the local zoo had a monkey escape a couple of times last year.

    This line was great!

    "Those on the scene said it didn't appear to be a human dressed in an ape suit because the creature did not move like a person."

    And has anyone seen Jim Belushi lately?

    On the scene, police report no sign of track or ... wait for it ... gorilla scat.

    BTW, if you Google "gorilla scat," the first two links are to Bigfoot sites.
