Monkey steals money from jewelry store in India
Surveillance videos shows a monkey robbing a jewelry store in India.

INDIA -- A monkey was caught on camera in India going bananas inside of a jewelry store.

The monkey tossed a piece of fruit into the store, distracting a worker. When the man bends down to pick it up, the monkey runs inside. Then, the little guy hops up into a chair that is near the register.

The man pulls out the cash drawer, and opens and grabs a stack of money. An employee runs over and tries to give the monkey a banana, but he didn't take it.

Instead, the primate ran out with 150 Rupees.
