Account

The witness, age about nine, was camping with two cousins and his older brother in a field on his aunt's farm. Pre-dawn he heard rustling through tall grass and brush, then saw a giant hairy arm with a huge hand reach through a mesh opening at the top of the tent. His young cousin gasped, the arm withdrew, they heard it retreat, and in daylight they found a wide path pressed through the grass to the thicket.
