Teenager Jose Alvarez — who filmed the gnome — yesterday told national newspaper El Tribuno that they caught the creature while larking about in their hometown of General Guemes, in the province of Salta, Argentina.

Says Alvarez, who caught the odd creature with its distinctive sideways walk on video, said it was around 1:00 a.m. in the morning when they suddenly heard a noise like someone throwing stones. The crowd was a bit stunned and fortunately it was caught on tape. See that video here.

"We looked to one side and saw that the grass was moving. To begin with, we thought it was a dog, but when we saw this gnome-like figure begin to emerge we were really afraid." Added Alvarez, "This is no joke. We are still afraid to go out - just like everyone else in the neighborhood now. "One of my friends was so scared after seeing that thing that we had to take him to the hospital."
