Class B First-hand BFRO #70712

Possible sighting by motorist in daylight between Lake O' the Pines and Ore City

9 September 2021 early morning, around 7:50 am Ore City, Marion County, Texas 1 witness

Account

The witness was driving after taking kids to school and slowing to turn when a tall black figure was noticed just behind the treeline. The figure was upright on two thick legs and ran quickly deeper into the woods when the witness slowed for a better look. Only a partial view was obtained, and the witness felt size, shape and speed did not match known local wildlife.
