Multiple witness sighting at night, 3 miles east of Mead, Nebraska
Account
On the night of July 4, 1979, the witness was relaxing with a large group at a farmhouse after fireworks when the group saw a very large figure walking quickly across a bean field about 300 yards away. The figure leaned forward and swung its arms as it crossed the field and disappeared behind a hill. The witness and a relative drove into the field and followed a trail to a barbed-wire fence where the ground was torn up, scanned the nearby treeline with spotlights without seeing anything, then backed out.
