Baboon on the loose? Girl starts false frenzy
FLORISSANT, Mo. (AP) -- Police in the St. Louis suburb of Florissant spent a big part of the day looking for a baboon on the loose. A grade school went into lockdown. A woman scattered potato chips on the ground and made monkey sounds to try and lure the primate. But in the end, a 14-year-old girl admitted it was all a hoax after the picture she claimed to have snapped proved to be one she actually found on the Internet.
The case will be referred to St. Louis County Family Court for review
