Man tells story of encounter when he was young.
Account
When the witness was 10 years old, she walked home alone along a logging road after school. She repeatedly heard movement in brush and trees that seemed to shift sides and follow her as she ran toward a clearing near the house. Shortly afterward two relatives checked the road and reported a strong smell and very large tracks.
