A woman and her daughter report being followed by a large animal as they walked along a dark country lane near their home
Account
The witness and a young family companion walked home in darkness after an evening visit and heard footsteps in leaves and twigs that stopped when they stopped. They continued home, sat in a yard swing, then heard a loud guttural growl that seemed to shift to directly behind them. They slowly entered the house and locked the doors.
