Account
Teenagers reported to RCMP that on the evening of September 10, before dark, some of them had seen a dark, hairy creature, 8 to 12 feet tall, with reflecting yellow eyes, on the semi-open hillside above the E & N railroad just east of Humpback Road, shortly after dark. It moved very fast on its hind legs, hid when it saw them, came out, then hid again. More youths came out the next night. Some climbed a hydro tower, some sat in car. It chased a pickkup truck. No witness could give a detailed description. Failed to note light sources.
