Man recalls his nighttime sighting of a tall hair covered biped outside Orlando

BFRO YEAR: early 2000 night, around 2am to 4am Orlando, Orange County, Florida 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a cousin were parked late at night beside a playground near a small lake and woods after driving home. The witness, still in the car, saw a huge dark fur-covered figure standing nearby in dim light. When the witness opened the door and the car was started, the figure moved off to the right as they drove away toward their neighborhood. They briefly returned to look for it but found no trace.
