Daylight encounter one mile south of Agency on the Platte River
Account
The witness claims they were sitting alone fishing on a riverbank in the early evening when they heard prolonged rustling and noticed a strong foul odor growing stronger. After about 10-15 minutes they turned to see a very tall, broad, dingy-brown hairy figure standing 20-30 yards away staring at them without moving or making sound. After a brief stare-down the witness dropped their fishing pole and ran about a half-mile to their car and drove home, and states they have never returned to the spot.
