Partial sighting in Minnesota

The witness and his spouse were sitting on the back deck of their new house on an open pasture. They watched three very large animals moving on all fours through tall grass about 300 yards away at high speed. The movement did not match bear or dog locomotion to the witness, and the size and group behavior seemed unusual for local bears.

Property disturbance near Lake City, Minnesota

A couple who team-drive a long-haul truck reported seeing dead animals with no blood or skid marks along I-94 at dawn, including a curled bear, dairy cows, and deer within a few miles. After unloading, they drove Highway 61 along the Mississippi River and watched a small black unmarked helicopter with blacked-out windows struggle to lift a large white teardrop-shaped bag from the riverbank via cable. Shortly after, both received identical texts from a blocked number asking to speak with them, which they deleted, and they noticed several unplated black SUVs at a nearby gas station.

Girls see "blonde gorilla" just north of the Twin Cities

Two girls were walking in woods near home looking for a tree to climb when they encountered an upright beige-haired gorilla-like creature in a clearing. The creature first appeared bent over, then straightened and seemed to notice them, causing both girls to run home and immediately tell a parent. The parent did not inspect the site because the girls were too frightened to return. An investigator later interviewed both witnesses as adults and they maintained the same account.
