Class B First-hand BFRO #62352

Group of fisherman with a possible sighting of whitish/grey creature outside Neosho Falls

17 April 2017 nearing 11:00 pm, pitch black night Neosho Falls, Woodson County, Kansas 3 witnesses

Account

Three companions were night fishing from a bridge when the witness exchanged whoop calls with something across a field that steadily approached. After packing gear and waiting by a truck with lights on, they heard footsteps in a ditch and briefly saw only the whitish-grey top of a head. The entity then gave a loud whoop from about 20 yards away, prompting them to flee, and daylight examination the next day suggested it was over seven feet tall.
