They must be making some strong moonshine in the woods of North Caralina.

North Carolina police have filed a suspicious person report after resident Tim Peeler claims he saw the mythical creature BigFoot.

"This thang was 10 feet tall, he had beautiful hair," said Peeler. He was out calling coyote "Instead of them.........him."

Peeler defended himself and the dogs Bigfoot was trying to eat by using a big stick.

"I come out chere and rough talked him and run him off," claims Peeler. "I said git away from here....git....git! And he went right back chere dat paff again."

Even sheriff's deputies in this neck of the woods believe in Bigfoot.

Sgt Mark Self recalls stories of the beast as a child. "It scared me, there was a 8-10 foot hairy looking man/person," he explains. "It was killing some animals, breaking into chicken houses killing chickens."

As Peeler drew a picture of the creature he described what he looked like further. "Look like he had six fingers on each hand."

The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization says there have been 57 Bigfoot sightings in North Carolina since 1997, including six in Cleveland County where Peeler lives.

This dude is straight tripping if you ask me.
