Is this the mythical Lizard Man of South Carolina? New picture could solve 25-year mystery

Is this the Lizard man?
A new image has emerged claiming to show a mythical creature believed to live in a South Carolina swamp. The creature was reportedly first spotted 30 years ago but has not been seen for more than a decade. But a woman from nearby Sumter believes she has caught Lizard Man on camera. Sarah
Berra says she was at church with a friend last Sunday when she stepped
outside and caught a glimpse of the fabled creature running along the
tree line. She says she managed to grab her mobile phone and snap a picture of the monster. In an email to ABC News 4, she said: "My hand to God, I am not making this up. So excited!" The image shows a very muscular upright, human-like creature with three clawed toes on each foot and clawed fingers.

Footage: The creature was spotted lurking in the background
Scape Ore Swamp is where most of the Lizard Man sightings over the last 30 years have been focused. The first ever sighting, known as the Davis sighting, occurred in the summer of 1988. Christopher
Davis, then aged 17, is believed to have stopped on a road bordering
the Scape Ore Swamp to change a flat tyre at 2am. He heard noises, turned to see the creature charging at him, so he ran for the safety of his car.
The Lizard Man jumped on the roof as Davis tried to drive away. There were scratch marks on the roof and one of the side mirror had been damaged. There
have been plaster casts of the mythical beast's claw. There have been
million-dollar rewards to capture the Lizard Man alive.
Since the first sightings in the late 1980s, the Lizard Man sightings have trailed off. One
of the last alleged encounter with the Lizard Man came in 2011 when a
Bishopville couple reported their car had been mauled overnight.
That
encounter came about the same time a team of College of Charleston
professors boarded a bus bound for Bishopville to track down the
mythical beast. There were teeth marks in in the metal and saliva coating several discarded parts.
Following the backlash that trailed her performance at Shatta Wale's Reign Concert over the weekend, Ghanaian singer, Fantana has now released a statement. The singer stated that she is not ashamed of being a woman and also mesntruating. Her statement read in part; "Regardless of my costume being transparent, my only option was to put on a sanitary pad and still go ahead to perform. I am a woman and I’m not ashamed of menstruating. "I want to urge every woman to resist being discriminated against because of menstruation. I hope some people read wide and learn about menstrual health to stop the stereotype against young girls and women. "Yes my menses appeared 30 minutes to my performance and I had to put on a sanitary pad and still go on stage. "Menstruation is not a shame and I urge all young women take a cue from my actions and not to let it stop them from doing anything they want to do."
