Account
At age eleven while staying with family friends on a farm, the witness went for an evening walk on a dirt road with an older family friend. After deer burst from nearby woods, a very tall dark bipedal figure roared loudly and charged through brush toward them, causing them to flee to the car and drive away. Wildlife officials later suggested a bear, which both witnesses rejected.
