Account

As a high-school student waiting for the morning school bus at the top of a hill, the witness looked down a gravel road toward a lit area near a creek crossing. She claims a large unrecognized animal crossed the two-car-wide road in a single step. She was frightened, returned to the house and turned on the lights, and told no one at the time.
