Booger Is Sighted At Sargent

(From the Thursday, Aug. 23 1979 edition of the Newnan Times-Herald newspaper.)

Only one sighting of the Belt Road Booger has been reported this week, according to Coweta County Sheriff Aaron Massey.
Tuesday the sheriff's department received a call that the creature had been spotted in the Sargent area. The caller did not leave her name, however.
A car was sent to the scene, but nothing was found.
"We're not hearing anything right now," Sheriff Massey said. Newnan Police Chief Jerry Helton reported no calls about "booger sightings" during the past week.
Local game warden Walt Taylor said that traps from the Game Management Division of the Georgia Game and Fish Commission have not yet arrived.
"We're having so many complaints, it's hard to know where to put the things," Taylor said.
"There's no use putting the traps out" unless the location of the creature can be pinpointed within two miles, Taylor added.
Scott Massey of Atlanta has spent several mornings this week looking for the booger near Belt Road and Meadowview subdivision where it had been sighted earlier.
Massey, who said he learned of the booger by reading the Times-Herald, decided to spend his vacation in Coweta County searching for the elusive being.
One morning "a pack of dogs was chasing something that was crashing through the woods, but I never did see what it was. That's about it," he said.
