Account

The witness had spent years hiking and riding in groves near the Everglades. One night in 1981 he walked a wooded trail and heard a strange sound, then footsteps that paralleled him and then chased him as he ran toward lights. He escaped to a condominium and later to a friend's house, concluding he had been chased by a skunk ape.
