In the Western part of Switzerland managed to capture the mysterious "soldier" who is now about 15 years old wandering through the woods in camouflage cloak and put on a head a gas mask. Locals say that a mysterious figure, which they called "Le Layon" ("Le Loyon"), daily walks on the same route.

Now police are trying to find an unknown man that asked him to behave in a less threatening, although he's still never shown any signs of aggression. An Amateur photographer, who managed to track down the "soldier", said:

"I met him during his walk. I approached to a distance of ten meters. It was a military Cape, boots and an army gas mask — vintage sample, as I thought".

"He was a growth of about 1.9 meters. He stared at me, then turned back to me and silently proceeded further."

Other residents living in these areas, also decided to share their stories about the alleged meeting with a stranger. One woman reported:

"It scared my children. He came out of the woods in his military attire. For his big and dark gas mask we saw neither his face nor his eyes."

Another local resident of the village of Mol, Deckle Marianne (Marianne Desscloux), said:

"It was a rainy Sunday. He was wearing a peaked cap, a dark cloak and mask. What did he have in mind? I don't know. It was unpleasant. I hope I never see him cross".

Some people argue that this unusual man holds in his hands a bouquet of flowers. One farmer added:

"Families just don't go in the woods".

Also this character, many people call the Swiss answer to the Loch Ness monster.

Guy Savary (Savary Guy), a local municipal official responsible for forests, said:

"The situation is delicate because we basically have nothing against this man do not have. But since he arouses these fears, we are going to hold a meeting to see if we can find a way to find him and ban him to behave as he behaves".

Original news

A mysterious person has been photographed for the first time after apparently wandering around a patch of woodland for the past 10 years.

The figure, who is known as 'Le Loyon' and has been called Switzerland's answer to the Loch Ness Monster, wears a military uniform and a thick cloak, with a gas mask covering his or her face.

While he does not seem to be obviously aggressive or dangerous, police are hoping to speak to Le Loyon in an effort to encourage him to be less threatening.

Tales of Le Loyon have been reported in the woods of Maules in western Switzerland for the past decade, apparently walking the same route every day.

Spotted: 'Le Loyon' has been photographed for the first time after a decade spent wandering the woods

However, last month Le Matin published what is believed to be the first ever photograph of the figure.

'I came across him near the marches,' said the unnamed amateur photographer who tracked him down. 'I approached him up to a dozen metres away.

'He had a military cape, boots and an army gas mark - an antique type, I think. He measured more than 1.90m. He stared at me then turned his back on me and left in silence.'
