A St. Paul police officer is under investigation after entering Como Zoo, after hours, to feed gorillas a snack.

Surveillance video captured the incident last January, around 2 a.m., when two zoo security guards snuck four to eight people into the zoo. Among the unauthorized visitors, was an off-duty St. Paul Cop.

The Como Zoo isn't sure if the gorillas actually ate the Pop-Tarts or not. Regardless, the gorillas appear to be doing just fine.

The three gorillas are named Schroeder, Gordy and Togo.

The Zoo says zoo-goers are not allowed to feed the animals.
