Account
The witness was driving in the morning when they noticed a large hair-covered man-like figure standing at the edge of the woods about 50 feet away. The figure first moved backwards with small steps, then turned and walked deeper into the woods until it could no longer be seen. The witness estimated its height from nearby pine trees at upper six feet to near seven feet with very broad shoulders.
