OBSERVED: In the fall of 1997, I was in the employ of Cannon County Sheriffs Dept. as a detention Officer.One of the dispatchers called back to my work station to tell me of a report she had recieved containing information about a possible bigfoot sighting in the area of Short Mountain.
After the callerhung up, we all had a good laugh, thinking the woman to be intoxicated.After reading the report posted on this sight, however,
I feel this information could be of use to you.
The description she gave matched the one in your
