Sorry for such a huge post but this is an incredible event! I've been hearing some unusual noises off and on at night for the past several weeks
(strange howls, screams, etc). Some people in my neighborhood have heard them too. There is a research lab in my area, and also local legends of a
"werewolf" type of creature supposedly seen by a few people. But I've always been a skeptic, until I saw a creature last night that was unlike
anything I've seen before!
It started at about 9:00 when I came home from shopping. I was unpacking the car when I heard the same howling/screaming in the distance. It only
lasted a few minutes, so I went inside my house without another thought. Then at about 10:30, I saw flashing lights outside so went to check it out. I
found out someone down the street heard something on their roof and called the police. They found loose tile and their back fence was bent a little.
The cops left and I returned home.
At approx. 11:45, all hell broke loose! I was getting ready for bed when I heard a loud commotion. It seemed like every dog in the area was going
crazy. I opened a window and heard the same strange howling again in the distance. Then a plain white Jeep Cherokee type of SUV with blacked out
windows pulled up outside. I know because it stopped near a street lamp and I could see it plain as day. It had no visible strobe lights or agency
markings, so I thought maybe it was just a civilian vehicle until a guy wearing a black uniform got out, carrying a rifle. So I thought let me see
what is going on now. I grabbed my little recorder and headed outside. You can hear the result yourself by listening to the file below.

Here is a narration: I went outside and the dogs were still going crazy. You can hear me walking down my driveway, then you'll hear the noise of a
vehicle. It was another white SUV. You hear my footsteps again as I headed for my backyard.
Almost at the same time, my neighbor's dog started going crazy. I went up to my rear fence and then I saw the creature! I am 6'1" and it was a
little taller than me. It looked a grayish color under the moonlight and it was standing up like a man. It started growling at me and I honestly
thought I was going to have a heart attack. My pulse raced up and I could feel my heart pounding, but I couldn't move. I was paralyzed with fright.
This thing was about 10 feet or less from me! Then you hear a scream...no it wasn't me, it was my neighbor's daughter who apparently had gone
outside to see why her dog was barking. She saw the creature and screamed. As soon as she screamed, the creature/beast/whatever you want to call it,
took off in a sprint into the woods. It knocked over a tree as you can hear.
I finally came to my senses and started walking back toward my house. Then you can hear a helicopter approaching and I stopped again. I couldn't see
what the helicopter looked light, only that it was dark colored and shining a spotlight into the woods. A police car pulled up on the opposite street.
Then I almost crapped my pants because someone from the helicopter started shooting a machine gun. Then you can hear the creature howl in the
distance. Next, I start to run back into my house as one of the guys on foot (either someone from one of the white SUV's or the police officer)
starting shooting.
And that is the end of the clip. I called the police this morning to ask what happened, and was told that an officer "had to put down a pit bull"
that got out of control. You can listen to the audio and read the info. above, and know that it was certainly NOT a pit bull!
And this morning
there was a team of people investigating the area (see cell phone pic of roped off area).
That's all I have for now I am going to call the local media to see if they're interested my audio.
