Nasty chimp named ‘Moe’ escapes from cage, now on the loose in San Bernadino County

There’s a chimp on the loose in San Bernardino County.

County animal control staff and volunteers were fanning out Saturday across a densely forested area near the town of Devore in search of Moe the chimpanzee.

A friend of Moe’s owners says the chimp escaped Friday from his cage at an animal sanctuary near the town.

He says he thinks Moe may be lurking in a nearby part of the San Bernardino National Forest.

Moe lived with his owners in their West Covina home until 1999, when the animal bit a police officer and a female visitor.
