Account

Late at night the witness was riding as a passenger in a car driven by her husband on Diamond Mill Road. She saw a tall, hair-covered bipedal creature cross the road in the headlights, moving downhill from a game trail. Her husband did not see it because he was focused on the road ahead. The encounter lasted only a few seconds at close range.
