‘Ape Man’ Who Lived In Tree Eludes Police

‘Ape Man’ Who Lived In Tree Eludes Police
(International News Service)
North Bonneville, Wash.-An “ape man” who terrorized this small town of loggers and Bonneville dam workers will no longer be able to sleep in his arboreal mansion of hewn planks, because authorities have ordered the small tree-shack torn down.
The dismantling orders were given by Marshall McCurdy after the “ape man”-so called only because he is believed to have climbed a tree-twice escaped from state police who surrounded the tree containing the small shack in which he was reported living.
The mysterious ape man was reported by two youths who planned to spend a night in the tree house. When police surrounded the tree and climbed to the shack, they found only a recently gutted candle and a few undecipherable marks on the walls.
A few hours’ later police staged a surprise attack on the tree house, firing a volley of buckshot at it, but their raid was fruitless. State police said the occupant, reportedly a swarthy, eccentric “Indian” who was noticed loitering near the shack, made his escape through the trees.

Hey Yankeesearch, didn’t even know you were in chat, now you have the bug so bad you will have to keep going out to see another one. :)

Anyway, as I stand before God, I did not make this up!
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:55 am »
Not saying it was Sq/BF/DM/Yeti... but it was strange. And I am locking my doors tonight for sure! :lol:
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:54 am »
And just I was turning away, I thought I heard snort -- which could have been deer or maybe cattle... but... I do not know.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:53 am »
I did not have the creepy feeling I normally get in these situations... so I really do not know what to make of it.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:53 am »
One detail I forgot to mention: the whoop had almost a human like talk after it on both occasions.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:52 am »
I walked back to the other side, and thought I heard a knock...
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:51 am »
Cattle about 1/8th mile away disappeared... and strangely at that location: it sounded like something banged the metal fence. Not loud... but never ever heard it before tonight.
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:50 am »
Two whoops... and some deer scattering (they may have been scattering because of me).
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:50 am »
From 6:20 PM to maybe 6:45 PM CST
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:49 am »
I may have just had an encounter!
@ yankeesearch « Tue 12:46 am »
Hi gang! I know it has been a long time...
@ BrianDriver « Sat 12:59 pm »
Good quality pics. How long were the cams out?

Just to get the chat going, it’s going to take some time to move over all the data, but in the end, hope everyone likes the layout here.
