π Description
A daytime Bigfoot sighting in Central Pennsylvania near Bellefonte was reported on Interstate 80 around 5:30 PM on October 4, 2025. A retired civil engineer and Air Force veteran observed a dark, upright, human-like figure with a distinct head and shoulders that appeared taller than a man. The creature crossed four traffic lanes in about three seconds with a fast but smooth, glide-like movement, then vanished into the woods without climbing the guardrail.

The incident occurred about 11.5 miles northeast of Bellefonte, near Bald Eagle State Park, in a region that BFRO notes as active for sasquatch reports.
