Horse rider has daytime encounter near San Angelo.
Account
The witness was horseback riding on familiar trails in the afternoon when the horse grew nervous and the area went unusually silent. Near a ridge she saw a large very dark hair-covered being squatting in dense brush, which then started to emerge upright as the horse bolted. She briefly stopped in a clearing, saw nothing following, then rode quickly back to the trailer and reported what happened to relatives there.
