# of Witnesses: 1
Witness Account:
While loading firewood, bipedal footsteps approached brush pile
when I got no response I shined flashlight at 5 feet. A huge round black face,bare of hair,roared loud as a tiger. I ran into my truck. the passenger door was open. It got into my truck and in a very base scream roared in some kind of language into my direction, I drove and it got out. This event occurred approximately 7 miles west of Sanger, Tx, Denton county, approximately 1 mile north of fM 455 on clear creek bottom land. When I shined the light directly into its eyes they reflected back red. The creature was exactly my height, 6'2". I never noted body size.
Hand/foot prints:
Numerous footprints in area. When I returned to get my saws days later I knew not what this was or to take plaster casts.
Sounds:
Extremely powerful roar deep gutteral bass. In the truck, vocalizations were presumed to be a language due to intonations noted.
Additional observations:
Previously during the day, approximately every 20 to 30 minutes loud singular clacking of large rocks was heard and/or breaking of very large sticks. Upon investigating could find nothing.
