Daylight sighting by motorist couple in the Montura Estates area

1982–1983 late afternoon, about 3-4 o'clock Clewiston, Hendry County, Florida 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and her husband were driving slowly through a sparsely populated development after shopping. They noticed a tall, dark, hair-covered figure walking along and then across the road ahead of them. When they closed to about 100-150 feet and stopped, they observed its long hair, large size, and human-like walk before it stepped into dense vegetation and disappeared. They searched nearby roads but did not see it again.
