It is perhaps a car owner's worst nightmare.
Or perhaps something a car owner would never, in a hundred years, imagine happening to them.
After all, who would believe you if you said that a monkey removed your car's side mirror?
Caught in action
But that was exactly what happened to one car owner in Singapore.
"Your car side mirror was removed by the monkey," read the caption of a Facebook post uploaded by SG Road Vigilante -SGRV.
The post also had a photo which captured the primate perpetrator in its criminal act.
The incident reportedly occurred on Mar. 29, although the post did not mention the location.
In the photo, the creature, known as a dusky leaf monkey, can be seen sitting on the front hood of a black Honda Vezel, its fingers on the car's left side mirror.
In another photo, the monkey is seen sitting on top of a street lamp, as if it had nothing to do with the damage it caused.
