Rocks thrown at group of summer campers

1982–1983 night, about 10:30 or later until dawn British Columbia 21 witnesses

Account

The witness and about twenty other campers were sleeping on a beach during an overnight canoe trip to an island. After dark, rocks were repeatedly thrown hard and accurately at the group, continuing through the night until dawn and frightening many campers. The witness and a companion briefly saw a fleeting human-like figure running along the treeline toward the group before rejoining the others and sheltering behind driftwood.
