Sasquatch encountered standing by porch

The witness had been asleep at home when his wife woke him after hearing a strange growling sound close to the house. He looked out the bedroom window in bright moonlight and saw a hair-covered creature with a humanlike face about 12 feet away that turned to stare toward him. He grabbed a shotgun and ran outside, but the yard was empty, so he fired into the air. The family dogs, missing for three days, returned the next day.
