Public service officer hears unidentifiable screams and grunts near Hiram
In early June 2006 around 1 a.m., the witness arrived home from work and parked by the woodline near the driveway. After exiting the vehicle he heard loud howls and ape-like grunts from the woods that he perceived as very large and threatening. He shouted back, heard closer howling responses suggesting two animals, then retreated backward to his house with a firearm. He watched from inside but reported no further sights or sounds.
LEO recalls his daylight sighting as a youth with his horses NW of Atlanta
The witness was spending time with horses in a fenced pasture next to extensive woods when movement in brush near the barn drew attention and the horses ran toward the house. Thinking the partly obscured shape outside the fence might be a horse, the witness walked toward it and then saw a tall upright figure covered in reddish hair that grunted, looked at the witness, then pushed through small trees and brush leaving the area with loud heavy footsteps. The witness ran to the house and told relatives who were inside.
