Sasquatch sighting in Illinois (2016)

1 witness
Account
The witness was night fishing alone from a boat on a T-shaped strip-mine lake when a growl intensified nearby. A large dark figure stood up behind boats on the bank and faced him, then displayed, charged a short distance, breathed heavily, screamed and left vocalizing. He kept a handgun trained on it, drifted away, and watched it disappear into shadows.
