Mother and her son see a tall, hairy, bipedal creature cross the road in two steps
Account
Late at night the witness was driving home with a relative as passenger on a two-lane wooded road. A very tall, lanky, dark-haired figure crossed from one side of the road to the other in about two and a half steps. The driver braked hard to avoid striking it with the front of the car and watched it enter the woods.
