Class A First-hand BFRO #69641

Close-range multi-witness sighting 3 miles west of Lawrenceburg

12 June 2021 approximately 9:30 PM Lawrenceburg TN, Lawrence County, Tennessee 2 witnesses

Account

A couple driving home at night turned onto their rural street and saw a dark-haired ape-like animal in the headlights a few feet ahead. The animal avoided the lights and bounded quickly on its forelimbs in a gorilla-like manner across a neighbor's lawn before disappearing. Both adults observed the movement, though only the husband saw its fingered hands picking at the ground.
