Two motorists spot a Sasquatch TWO DAYS AGO on South Fork Ninnescah River 30 miles west of Witchita

The witness was riding as a passenger with a relative driving home when they crossed a bridge over a river. She spotted a reddish-brown fur-covered figure standing on the bank north of the bridge, a few feet from the water and out from the treeline. Both occupants saw it briefly, but she got the better look and noted visible arms with hands darker than the body fur. The estimated distance was 150 to 200 feet, and the spot was later under higher water.
