OBSERVED: This is a second hand report. I worked for XXXXXX in Lubbock, texas. A contract foreman friend of mine was camping on an employee's ranch (employee's father). My friend XXXX was just about to go to sleep in the back seat of his Suburban. He had the windows rolled down about six inches. He said that he was just about asleep, but looked out the window. He saw a hairy face at the window at his feet side. XXXX raised his .357 up and drew down on the face. He was scared but did not shoot. He said later that he didn't want to go to jail over a prank. The hairy-faced thing walked around the back of the Suburban, walked behind the vehicle, walked by the side the other window, and got in front of the vehicle. At this time, XXXX leaned over the seat and turned the headlights on. XXXX said that at this point, he knew it wasn't a prank. The creature was 7"-8" tall and was hairy all over. The face had hair all over except for the eye to nose area. He said that the upper lip had hair hanging down to about it's chin. He estimated the weight to be from 500-800 pounds. The buttocks area was out of proportion with the rest of the body. The buttocks area was larger. After he turned the headlights on, the creature blew him off, much like a deer would. I remember this comment well, because he talked about the long hair on it's upper lip blowing straight out before it left. I have endured a bit of ridicule over this story. My daughter was born March 24, 1975. The weekend after her birth my wife came home from the hospital. I went on a hunting expedition the day she came home from the hospital. There was no one to help her out, and I caught flack from her and my monster (mother)- in-law. We were going back to shoot the thing with a .45-.70. Of course, we never saw the thing. I still remember the bright shade of red on my friend XXXX's face when he would tell me that story.

Activities of Witness: Was camping on river, fire had gone out, drank a few beer. was about to go to sleep in back seat of Suburban

Description of Creature: 7"-8" tall, 500-800 lb., buttocks area larger in proportion to rest of body, no neck, hairy face except around eyes and nose, very long hair on upper lip that extended to creature's chin

Other Notes: The land owner ridiculed the story. The ranch had been in the family for a long time. No one had seen or heard of any such sightings.

Other (Informational or Encounter History in the General Area) Notes: I have no way of knowing. This was a pretty good trip from Lubbock, and I didn't know the owner. His son worked on the "jug crew" for XXXXX Seismic Part XXX. XXXX was the contract foreman.

Additional Notes and or Follow up Comments: My friend XXXX XXXXXX was an ex gun shop owner. He left the Lubbock area, moved back to Illinois. He became a police detective for the Mt Vernon Illinois Police Department. He was a bruiser of a man who was quite shaken by the experience. He is dead now. A friend of ours, XXXXXX XXXXXXX, later moved back to Salem, Illinois and is also deceased. He accompanied us on our "hunting expedition." He did not believe XXXX and came with us to target practice.
