Mederios Alien Hominid

This was an alien creature sighted near Portland, Oregon in May of 1971. It was described as an ape-like creature standing ten feet tall, gray in color, with low hanging arms. It was sighted initially by a man named Joe Mederios, and then separately sighted by three businessmen, despite Joe intentionally telling no one due to fear of ridicule. It was seen many times around a trailer park by a number of people. In these incidents, it often stood in place for extended periods of time, simply staring. Eventually it disappeared from the area.
