Landowners describe sporadic incidents over two decades near Cherryville, vicinity of Meramec River

25 January 2019 night Cherryville, Crawford County, Missouri 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and her husband sat on the front porch at night with a night vision scope. They watched a tall, huge figure standing about 50 yards away in the woods, passing the scope back and forth, and saw it crouch down and stand back up. While they watched, a rock was thrown onto the carport by something else nearby, and when the husband started toward the figure it vanished in a sudden flash of movement.
