Shot at around 1 o'clock in the morning, the footage shows a peculiar hominid moving erratically along a road in front of several houses. At one point an approaching vehicle prompts the figure to dash out of sight behind some parked cars.

"The purpose of the video was to record the coyotes coming into the community," said local resident Brian Ogawa. "The camera was on, facing west of Brightstar on the corner of Sundance in Anaheim Hills. We have no idea what it is."Theories put forward to explain the sighting range from an escaped gorilla to evidence of Bigfoot, but the most likely explanation is that the mystery figure is simply a person wearing an ape costume.

What they were doing on the road in the early hours of the morning however remains a mystery.
