November 1968 South Kent, Litchfield County, Connecticut Class A #847

Daytime sighting from a farm house in the hilly area of Newton farm, outside South Kent

As a child, the witness watched from a second-floor farmhouse window as a tall, hairy biped crossed the front yard uphill, repeatedly glancing back and briefly meeting his gaze before disappearing around the house. Frightened, he ran to his parents, and a relative and a companion went outside and found oversized footprints that they followed by car across a plowed field until the tracks led uphill toward the forest and disappeared.
