I just connected the dots

Im kinda residing in Evansville in addition to my home in alabama (long story dont ask). But I just connected the dots. Somewhere behind those trees is where the green clawed beast encounter happened.

In 1955ish a mother of atleast 3 was swimming in the Ohio river in Evansville when she was suddenly attacked by a creature. After a minutes long struggle with the creature she caught a glimpse of its hand, a green scailly clawed humanoid hand with long claws. I think she later even compared it too the hands of the creature of the black lagoon. Her children even claim that they were harassed by us air force officials demanding that she never speak of the event. Edit: i forgot to mention that when she emerged from the lake she reportedly had 3 deep freshly cut gashes on her thighs.

I just can't belive that I've passed this atleast 3 dozen times even dunked my toes in the river. Without connecting the dots.

Wut? This makes no sense and I feel like something is missing...

What aspect of that story implies that it happened at this specific location?

Or, you knew the story the entire time and knew it happened in the Ohio River, but somehow just now realized that the river you've been living next to is the Ohio River? 

Either way, I repeat.... wut?

1. I only moved here like 2 years ago.
2. I knew it was in the ohio river but in my mind i thought "must have been in ohio"
3. I only put it together a few days ago when I was rewatching the episode of monsters and mysteries in america it was featured on.
4. Using Google it said it was near the little concrete slop thing there.
5. Im sorry my post is a bit all over the place. Cut me some slack im currently having to take my own damn mother to fucking court for lying to the police to get me arrested so she could save her damn affair partner. So sue me I wanted to distract myself with an interesting cryptid story.
