A large ape-like animal has been seen over the last several days in and around Decatur. Police Chief Coy Hendrix says he received two calls last week and another call Monday from people reporting that they have seen the animal. The first sighting was on Hill Street in Decatur; the second caller said the animal was headed north toward Crystal Lake, about a quarter mile away.
Monday`s caller said the animal was on Benning Road, several miles east of town.
An employee at the Wild Wilderness Drive-Thru Safari in Gentry said no animal matching the description had escaped from the park.
The police chief urged anyone with information that could help explain the mystery to call the department. Decatur is about 220 miles northwest of Little Rock.

Just damn.
If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
[As i mentioned, the B/C & JD! lists are going to float into and out of whack over the forseeable future, while I try to cobble a rig back together for myself. My apologies for any incovenience or misunderstandings in this time frame. New signups/removals may be flaky in this time-frame as well; please bear with me, and keep in mind you may have to FReepmail me more than once for me to get it done. Thanks again!]

No. It might, however, be Mayor Johnson.

egads- I live in this county. Last year I had an older fellow tell me that a critter very much like this one hung out around Fayettiville when he was a boy.

"the second caller said the animal was headed north toward Crystal Lake"
Was this large figure carrying a machete, chainsaw, or spear, perchance? And did it answer to the name 'Jason'?
