Off-duty law enforcement officers describe vocalizations, wood knocks, and rock throwning, outside the town of Heavener

January 2007 evening through night, about 5:15pm onward Heavener, Le Flore County, Oklahoma 3 witnesses

Account

Two companions camping with a companion's child heard ape-like calls and slow loud knocks near a creek in the evening and knocked back with logs. Rocks were thrown into camp, and at night something bipedal walked around and brushed the tent while making sniffing sounds at the seams. The activity continued over several days with more distant knocks that seemed to approach, another large rock landing near the witness, and an ice chest found opened.
