Sasquatch sighting near Smithfield, Virginia
Account
While driving a child home at dusk on a rural highway, the witness saw a juvenile biped chasing a deer toward thick brush as another car also braked. Both vehicles stopped, the witness spoke briefly with the other driver and then walked a short way into the woods hearing movement and taking photos that later appeared to show a silhouette by a tree. The child filmed the deer but not the biped, and was excited to have seen it.
