A man driving around the perimeter of the Park suddenly had a complete engine failure. As soon as he went out to investigate the problem, he was attacked by a strange creature. 

The creature was six feet tall (1.8 m), black, straight, with greenish-glowing almond-shaped eyes. The creature knocked the witness down and began to struggle with him. The creature looked like a cat and gave off a musty smell. 

The headlights of an approaching truck apparently scared the creature away, and the witness received only superficial wounds from the creature's claws.
