Yeti braves blizzard to lurk around Boston


Boston residents, this news is bigger than the snowstorm: There's a yeti on the loose, and it has internet access.
Yes, someone wearing an abominable snowman outfit is wandering the cold streets and tweeting about it, using the handle @BostonYeti2015. So far, he's posted rather creepy pictures on deserted highways, sidewalks, and roads around town, and who knows where he's headed next. Your move, @NYCBigfoot212.
