While sitting on relative's front porch, two children have daytime sighting
Account
Two children sitting on a relative's porch at midday watched a large hair-covered biped run out of the woods and across a field. It looked toward them briefly, cleared a barbed-wire fence with ease, then vanished behind a pond into the trees while dipping to miss a branch. The pair rushed indoors to tell adults, who told them it was likely a bear.
