Account
The witness was outside feeding horses at home in the afternoon when a tall, very hairy figure was seen from behind. The figure ran very fast across a pasture, jumped a wide creek, and continued up a hill into woods to the north. The witness watched from about 200 feet away and never saw the face, and never saw the figure again.
