Account

The witness was walking with two relatives along an oil access road while searching for an old cemetery. The witness saw a tall blonde stocky creature about 25 feet away staring, then watched it move between trees while staying upright on two legs. Frightened, the witness ran to the vehicle and urged departure, first describing the sighting after reaching the main road while the companions reported seeing nothing.
