Woman in parked car has nighttime sighting along the Ohio River
Account
The witness waited alone in a parked truck at night near the river to pick up relatives. A large hair-covered upright figure emerged from woods about 50 feet away, crossed the road and a field to the river treeline, pausing briefly to look around. The witness locked the doors and turned on the headlights, frightened by the encounter.
