Motorist has a close daylight sighting of a Sasquatch chasing a deer near Ocean Shores (Sketches included)

30 September 2013 about 1:00 p.m. Between Ocean Shores And Hoquiam, Grays Harbor County, Washington 1 witness

Account

The witness was driving on Highway 109 in early afternoon when a deer ran across the road, prompting slowing for a possible follower. A large bipedal male creature then ran across the road in three strides and stopped on the embankment about 20 feet away, facing the witness. After staring, the creature made a bared-teeth threat display, vocalized loudly, gestured to go away, then turned and disappeared into brush.
