Fisherman and his mom have a close encounter 4 miles west of Linden

Account

The witness and his mother were fishing with his father in a roadside wash at dusk when they heard footsteps in the water that sounded bipedal. A very large, wide figure then came into view in the open wash about 20 feet away, walked past them, turned and went up the bank into the woods. They shouted to the father and quickly left without discussing the event further.
