Account

The witness was home alone watching TV in a trailer when the dog began growling at the back door. The witness then saw a large shadow fill the back-door window and then the living-room windows before moving away. A faint skunk-like odor was also noticed. The witness stayed on the couch afraid until relatives returned home.
