Woman has daytime sighting near West Orange
Early one sunny morning, the witness looked out a bathroom window and saw a jet-black, ape-like figure running bipedally along the backyard fence. The figure ran silently and fluidly over uneven leaf-covered ground with its arms held like a human runner, then disappeared into the woods. About a minute later the witness heard repeated rock-knocking sounds from the woods. A later inspection of the area found no footprints.
Small group observed in a remote part of Essex County Swamp, around noon
Two teenagers walking west along a feeder stream around midday saw four dark creatures about 75 yards away on and around the stream bank. The largest stood about eight feet tall while the others were sitting, lying, and standing in the water, and the group watched the witnesses for a few minutes. The pair ran east to a power-line cut and then south to a highway, went home, and told only their parents.
