Account
The witness was hunting deer from a tree stand in the afternoon when a dark figure was seen walking along a distant ridge, visible from the waist up. The figure moved with a long stride and high, marching-like arm swings with open hands, then disappeared behind bushes. The witness then heard loud branch-breaking sounds followed by quiet, became uneasy, and left the area.
