An account in Martin County, Florida
I WORK IN STUART AND LIVE IN JUPITER SO MY COMMUTE IS UP AND DOWN US1. I HAD BEEN WORKING LATE SO DRIVING SOUTH JUST AFTER SUNSET. THE ROAD WAS QUIET WITH JUST ANOTHER PICK UP TRUCK APPROACHING MY TRUCK FROM BEHIND. I NOTICED SOMETHING VERY LARGE WALKING ON THE WEST SIDE OF US1 WALKING NORTH SO APPROACHING ME. IT WAS JUST OUTSIDE THE JOHNATHON DICKINSON STATE PARK. MY BEST DESCRIPTION OF WHATEVER IT WAS WOULD BE A HUGE FOOTBALL PLAYER IN FULL SHOULDER PADDING (6-7' TALL) WEARING A FULL LENGTH LONG, SHAGGY FUR COAT. BUT IT WAS AUGUST IN SOUTH FLORIDA....WHO WOULD BE WEARING A FUR COAT? I SLOWED WAY DOWN AS I BECAME LEVEL WITH IT AND THE TRUCK THAT WAS BEHIND ME HAD NOW PASSED ME SO I ALSO HAD THE BENEFIT OF THEIR FULL BEAM HEADLILGHTS. THE OTHER TRUCK SLOWED WAY DOWN AS IT APPROACHED IT THEN ACCELERATED AT A HIGH SPEED AWAY FROM IT....SOMEONE ELSE HAS THE SAME STORY TO TELL. WHEN I WAS PARALLEL WITH IT I GOT A BETTER LOOK. IT HAD THE FACE OF AN APE WITH A 'BUMP' ON TOP OF IT'S HEAD. THE FUR WAS LONG AND LOOKED WHITE...KIND OF LIKE A DIRTY WHITE SHAGPILE CARPET. AFTER READING THE REPORT FROM THE PERSON WHO SAID IT WAS SILVER, THAT COULD BE TRUE AS I WAS SEEING IT FROM JUST MOONLIGHT AND VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS. IT WAS INDEED ABOUT 6-7' TALL BY MY BEST ESTIMATE. IT JUST CONTINUED TO WALK, DID NOT TURN TO LOOK AT ME OR RUN AWAY, JUST FOCUSED STRAIGHT AHEAD. I HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE UP UNTIL YESTERDAY BECAUSE NOBODY WOULD BELIEVE ME, BUT I WAS JUST AT A PROSPECTIVE CLIENT'S HOME WHO WORKS IN JOHNATHON DICKINSON SO I MENTIONED IT....HE SEEMED TO BELIEVE ME AND JUST TOLD ME I WAS LUCKY BECAUSE I'D SEEN ONE. HE HASN'T.
This was years ago. I'm 38 now, but when this happened I was 14. My father worked with a guy who had some prime property in Naples, NewYork. Being that I was 14, I was not old enough to have…

While driving down the road about 10:30 pm I saw something standing on the left side of the road where the road curves to the right. I threw my headlights on bright and turned the wheel to t…
