Motorists have early morning sighting near Enterprise

15 June 2004 around 3:00am Enterprise/Meridian, Clarke County, Mississippi 2 witnesses

Account

The witness was driving on Interstate 59 toward Meridian with a relative around 3 a.m. in very heavy rain. A tall hair-covered biped came from the left and moved across the front of the vehicle. The driver slowed and swerved to avoid hitting it within a few feet, and it kept crossing to the east without stopping. Both occupants took the animal to be a bigfoot.
