Teenager observes animal hiding behind trees and finds footprint in the Clay Hills near Hoboken
Account
The witness was digging with a shovel near woods late in the evening when he heard footsteps and noticed a very tall, large upright figure peeking from behind trees. The figure moved away, then appeared behind him and watched for a time before walking into the swamp and disappearing. Poor light and vegetation prevented a clear view of details.
