Class A First-hand BFRO #435

Daylight sighting by husband and wife near home near Valhermosa Springs

10 October 2000 about 1:30 pm CST Valhermosa Springs, Morgan County, Alabama 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and her husband were driving on a narrow gravel road looking for deer in the early afternoon when they noticed a large brown hairy figure bent over near a pine thicket. The figure then stood upright on two legs, showing long arms, broad shoulders, and an estimated 7- to 8-foot height, before running quickly into the thicket. The pair returned the next morning and reported finding small and large footprints, hair on a fence, damaged fencing and poles, and a persimmon with no nearby tree.
