Their curiosity turned to shock when they saw what appeared to be a small monkey scooping up plants, flowers and accessories and handing them to someone waiting on the other side of a fence. 


The owners of Plants & Planters called Richardson police, who agreed it        was a monkey in the video.


The monkey, which looked like a lemur, made off with 30 to 40 plants, flowers, and concrete statues, according to Steve Stoller of Dallas-Forth Worth's WFAA-TV.


Owner Shelley        Rosenfeld told the police not to investigate the crime because, well, she found it too funny.
