Account

The witness and a companion were driving home from church at night on Highway 101 when they noticed movement on the right side of the road. They slowed thinking it was a deer, but the animal stood on two legs and crossed the road. They described a very large, wide, hair-covered creature that moved easily and quickly disappeared.
