Man has close moonlit encounter
Account
The witness and a companion were parked by a river around midnight under a full moon. The witness stepped a short distance from the car and heard movement in the grass and brush. A tall, broad-shouldered hairy silhouette emerged and faced the witness for several seconds. The witness fled to the car and the pair left the area.
