Not all animals are our friends.
Guy Williams propped his phone up on the ground to take a video of a raccoon he had affectionately nicknamed “Stanley,” but Stanley saw it as an opportunity.
Once he spotted the camera, Stanley picked up the phone and made a run for it.
Well played, Stanley.
Luckily, the camera continued rolling, and we can all now enjoy the instant-classic footage of Stanley’s attempted heist.

On a different phone, Williams’ friend caught him desperately calling out to Stanley during the action.

Luckily, after some quick thinking, Williams got his phone back.
@ThatShamuGuy for all those curious, “Stanley” finally dropped it after we started calling my phone.

Let’s hope the judge goes easy on Stanley.
