Incident #1000958
Hemet, Riverside Cty, California
Oct 1993
Account
Witness was in his back yard at sunset when he heard a noise, turned and saw a five-foot, hairy, upright, flat-faced creature standing still staring at him. Both fled, creature "ripping through brush at incredible speed." Pets had been acting panicky for weeks, heavy footfalls heard and motion-activated yard lights switching on at all hours of night.
