TAMPA — Two monkey sightings were reported Friday morning in northwest Hillsborough a couple of hours apart.
It's not clear if the same monkey was seen twice or if this is the same monkey that eluded officials last week, said Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Vida Morgan.
The first sighting was at 13444 Bellingham Drive at 7:50 a.m., Morgan said. A resident told Sheriff's Office dispatchers that a monkey was sitting on his back porch.
About 10:15 a.m., someone else reported seeing a monkey at 11700 Cypress Nook, about 2 miles away.
Florida Fish and Wildlife officials were notified but did not investigate.
