Late afternoon sighting by a deer hunter on her lease near Angelina National Forest
Account
The witness was deer hunting from a tripod stand in late afternoon when she spotted a tall hair-covered figure crossing toward a pine thicket about 400 yards away. She viewed it through her rifle scope, saw it glance toward her, then watched it continue into the thicket. Shaken, she left the stand, her ATV stalled, she fired distress shots, and a nearby hunter helped her return to camp.
