Account
The witness was driving home from work at night in rain and noticed a large brown figure walking along the roadside. At first the figure was mistaken for a large man in rain gear, but on getting closer the witness judged it far too large for a person and thought it might be a Bigfoot-type creature. The witness later returned to the spot but found nothing there.
