Colorado Man Steals Venomous Gila Monster By Stuffing It In His Clothes [VIDEO]

Is that a lizard in your shirt, or are you just happy to see me?

A Lakewood reptile store was robbed of a venomous Gila monster named Grumpy on Friday. A man stuffed the $1,200 poisonous reptile in his shirt and walked out of the store, and it was all caught on video. Check it out below.

The Denver Channel reports the shop is offering a $250 reward fro anyone that returns the reptile. I don't know about you, but stuffing a poisonous reptile in my clothes, seems like one of the less-intelligent plans I've ever heard of. (I'm also wondering who else would pay to add a poisonous critter like this to their family.)
