Initial data
Goatman County Prince Georges (Maryland), was seen from 1950-ies and is probably the most famous version of the story of the emergence of creatures with hooves in the United States.
There is a version that Goatman was a scientist by the name of Steven Fletcher, who worked in the nearby agricultural research center, Beltsville, experimenting with DNA at the goat, before a tragic accident led to the fact that he himself was partly a jerk. Although most people believe this version is untenable.
In the end, regardless of what they think about its origins, almost all the stories agree that the Man-goat of Maryland bloodthirsty. They say he roams the country roads, attacking the machine with a bloody axe.
He was accused of the brutal murder of 14 tourists in 1962. Their Talabani torn apart, while the creature itself uttered "screams, which could make only the devil himself".

Original news
The Maryland Goatman of Prince Georges County, Maryland has been sighted since the 1950s, and is probably the best-known and most persistent variation on the goatman story in the United States. Like many other urban legends, the Goatman is fond of lovers lanes, where he is often spotted by teenage couples. The Maryland Goatman is most frequently associated with stretches of Fletchertown Road and Lottsford Road in Prince Georges County—areas that were once sparsely populated, but nowadays have as many houses and malls as forested stretches for the goatman to lurk.
A favorite account claims that the Maryland Goatman was once a scientist named Stephen Fletcher who worked at the nearby Beltsville Agricultural Research Center conducting DNA experiments on goats, until a tragic accident led to him becoming part-goat himself. The Center doesn’t put much stock into the legends, though, at least according to spokesperson Kim Kaplan, who was quoted in Modern Farmer as saying, “I mean it’s so silly, it’s not even something that’s joked about.” But of course, if the Center was indirectly responsible for the creation of the goatman, they’d certainly have reason to deny their involvement.
After all, no matter what their suppositions about his origins, the stories almost all agree that the Maryland Goatman is bloodthirsty. He is said to roam the back roads, attacking cars with a bloody axe. According to one source, the Maryland Goatman was blamed for the brutal murders of 14 hikers in 1962, their bodies chopped to pieces while the goatman emitted “screams that only the devil himself would make.”
