Ron Bogutsky and several other young people were hanging out in a local Park near the Gothic mausoleum when four teenagers were struck by an incredible creature sitting on the stone wall of the mausoleum. 

They described the creature as approximately 9 feet (2.7 m) as tall as it stood , it had dark gray leathery skin, a muscular body with strong arms, Golden horns on its head, huge wings, and a long, curly tail. They were close enough to smell its breath, which they described as "full of the stench of decomposition and sulfur." 

Soon it flapped its wings, flew up, and disappeared.

Ron Bogacki and several other young adults were hanging out at a local park near the park’s gothic mausoleum when the four teenagers were awestruck by an incredible creature sitting atop the mausoleum’s stonewall. They described the being as perhaps 9 ft tall, if standing—with dark gray leathery skin, a muscular body with strong arms, golden horns on its head, huge wings and a long curling tail. They were close enough to have smelled its breath, which they described as “full of the stench of decay and sulfur.” It soon flapped its wings, flew straight upward and disappeared.
