Hikers spot white bigfoot at Higbanks Park outside Columbus, OH

Three people hiking in a metro park heard a large heavy animal running in the woods and making an unnerving sound. A white, roughly 7-foot-tall creature then crossed the road in front of them from one wooded side to the other. After hearing it approach again, they fled and encountered a park officer.

Teenagers wading down the Olentangy River at night have a sighting south of Delaware

In mid-summer 1975 around midnight, the witness and three companions were wading the Olentangy River when they heard breaking brush and saw a tall hair-covered biped at the tree line. The figure followed them downstream as they moved, and they heard heavy movement in the water and a howl as they fled to a nearby apartment complex. At the woods edge near the apartments it stopped and stared at them before they ran toward town and abandoned their gear for two days.
