21 January 2018 approximately 1:00 am St. Clairsville, Belmont County, Ohio 1 witness

Account

Around 1 a.m. in mid-September 2017 the witness was outside at home with a small dog when a very loud scream likened to a woman in trouble was heard from the wooded hollow below the house. A larger dog in the yard reacted by immediately wanting to go inside. The witness went back inside without further investigation.
