Man and girlfriend have sighting on Joint Base Lewis-McChord road near Spanaway
Account
Two occupants driving south to a fishing spot at dawn noticed an ape-like animal crouched beside garbage bags on the roadside. From about 22-25 feet they watched it lean forward and twice extend an arm to drop trash, noting black hair, facial features and long arms. They estimated its standing height at five-and-a-half to six feet and concluded it was a juvenile Bigfoot. The companion also reportedly saw an adult watching from the forest behind.
