"I'm Not Growing Pot, I'm Searching for Bigfoot!"

A brief excerpt from Alexandra Bosanac's 6/24/13 National Post article entitled "I'm Not Growing Pot, I'm Searching for Bigfoot:  Sasquatch Hunter Says He Was Wrongly Accused in Durham Forest":

"A Toronto man claims he was harassed for walking through thick brush in Durham region by a police officer who accused him of being a pot grower.

"Tim Marczenko denies the claim, saying he wasn’t growing dope, he was investigating sightings of Bigfoot.

“'[The officer] asked me, "What are you doing out here?" I told him I was investigating a Bigfoot report and he said, "Wow, you’re a terrible liar," ' said Mr. Marczenko. "I know it sounds crazy but I’m not lying about it," I said. He kept telling me I was lying about the situation.' 

"The site was under police surveillance after nearby residents complained about groups of young men flocking to the forest armed with shovels in weeks past. Three men were later arrested after several marijuana plants were found deep in the woods. Their cover was to tell the locals they were searching for Bigfoot.

"Last August, Mr. Marczenko said he was on assignment for the Ontario Wildlife Field Research investigation into numerous reports of Bigfoot-sized tracks in the Township of Brockton."
