The mechanical gorilla stolen from outside "Sandy's Sales" flea market store in East Machias has been located two states away in Vermont.
Lowell Miller realized over Labor Day weekend that his 8-foot-tall gorilla dubbed "Seamore" was stolen. An all-points-bulletin was put out for the mechanical monkey.
This week, Vermont State Police found Seamore in a corn field after a video confession surfaced on Youtube.com. The video shows the hooded abductor with a sock puppet on his or her hand first demanding ransom, then apologizing for causing so much trouble. (AP)
The confession! And the apology.
