A bow hunter reports an encounter around dusk in the woods off Hunter Road
Account
The witness was bow hunting at dusk, hidden between two deer trails, when footsteps approached from behind. A black, roughly 7.5-foot-tall figure stopped about 75 feet away and stared at the witness for about a minute while swaying slightly, then turned and walked away. The witness did not shoot, and a next-day search found no tracks due to leaf litter.
