The witness was fishing in a lake east of downtown Orlando when he had the feeling that something was watching him for about 5 minutes. He kept looking around, but he didn't see anything. It was very dark, but there was moonlight. 

He heard footsteps in the swamp on the shore of the lake near the pier where he was fishing, and then he saw and heard the ripples of the water near the shore. Then he saw two stork-like legs and a head watching him. He was looking straight at him, feeling very scared, as the witness shouted. 

Then the figure became like a man the size of a witness or so, and looked him straight in the eye. He tried to escape from the dock, but when he did, the figure slowly walked towards the end of the dock, apparently trying to cut off his path. 

He dialed 911 (apparently on a cell phone) and they told him to stay put as the police were on their way. Then the creature or figure seemed to disappear.

Summary:  The witness was cat fishing in a lake just east of downtown Orlando when he had the feeling that something was watching him for about 5 minutes. He kept looking around but saw nothing. It was very dark but there was some moonlight present. He heard footsteps in the marsh on the side of the lake near the dock he was fishing from and then he saw and heard a ripple of water near the shore. Then he saw two stork-like legs and a head watching him. It looked right at him, feeling very scared the witness yelled out. The figure then stood up, like a man the witness size or so and stared him dead in the eyes. He went to run off the dock but when he did so, the figure walked at a slow pace toward the end of the dock apparently in an effort to cut him off. He dialed 911 (apparently on his cell phone) and they told him to stay put that the police were on the way. The creature or figure apparently then disappeared. He is convinced that what he saw was not human and not a native animal.
