Account
The witness and a companion were walking to a house by a lake after a football game on a moonlit Friday night. They noticed a large dark bulky object sitting near the lake. The object stood up and ran east making loud noise, then came back along the same path running west. The witness estimated it was about 9 feet tall and 250-300 feet away throughout.
