Account
The witness was riding a bicycle through a farm field in the afternoon when they spotted a large hair-covered creature about 300 feet away moving toward a cornfield. The creature stopped upon noticing the witness, looked back, then ran down into the woods, stumbling and making a grunt-like sound. The witness rode home to report what they saw, but their relatives did not believe them.
