Account

Around 7:30 in the morning the witness was at home after briefly letting her dog out and the dog came straight back inside. She noticed a strong sewage-like smell and heard sticks breaking beside the house. Looking out the bathroom windows she watched a large dark upright creature walk north about 20 feet away and continue upslope toward the cemetery.
