The Alice Police Department has patrolled the lake area but have come up empty-handed. After hearing rumors of the beast in the Jim Wells County area, South Texas Bigfoot investigator Gabriel Guerrero came to investigate the lake.

We are not crazy, there is just crazy stuff out there. We know that something has been through here in the past couple of months," said Guerrero." - from the Bigfoot blog.
