20 miles SE of Dayton: Fishing couple stalked by a sasquatch at Caesar Creek State Park

25 July 2012 about 9:20 p.m. Caesar Creek State Park, Warren County, Ohio 2 witnesses

Account

Two people had been fishing at Caesar Creek Lake and were packing up after sundown when a growling/hissing sound came from the treeline. They shone a flashlight into the woods and saw green eyes, heard trees and brush thrashing as something moved, and smelled a strong scat-like stench. After watching about five minutes they gathered gear and walked back to the parking area feeling watched.
