Three young men spot a sasquatch on a country road near Cleveland
Account
The witness, then 16, was driving a pickup with two passengers to drop off a friend on a rural dirt road on a clear dark evening. The headlights illuminated a tall bipedal being covered in light brown hair walking along the roadside. The being stepped into a ditch and jumped a barbed-wire cattle fence on one leg within a few seconds. All three occupants reportedly saw it, remaining silent until one asked if the others had seen it.
