BFRO #77112: Daylight encounter on railroad bed near lower Paugussett State Park

📍 Location

📝 Description

I was 14 or 15 years old. While walking down the railroad tracks on my way to a friends house I was walking between the rails looking down so I didn't trip on the railroad ties. As I was walking I tripped and stumbled about 3 or 4 steps and cought my balance. When I looked up I see about 100 to150 ft. in front of me this dark brown figure about 8-9 ft tall. It looked at me and turned and in about 3 or 4 steps ran off the tracks and up a small cutaway about 12 ft high and into the woods it went. I was able to tell it was not a bear. This thing was 8-9 ft tall, dark brown hair about 4-5 in. long covering its entire body. It had a basketball player build but with more substance. It had arms that hung down between its knees and hips, but also long legs, The head sat on shoulders aprox. 3 ft wide. The head looked small for the size of the body. I could'nt see any ears or face details, except it was flat. This thing was fast! I only saw it for about 6 seconds before it ran into the woods. I couldn't see any skin color, only dark brown or black fur. When it turned and ran you could see the reddish tinge of the hair in the sunlight.
