In Woodville, woman sees bigfoot in back yard.
Account
In October 2001 on a late afternoon in Woodville, Texas, the witness looked out her kitchen window while cooking and saw a large black hairy biped standing motionless in profile about 50-60 feet away beside a tall tree. She watched it for a few minutes, then looked away to collect herself and found it gone, apparently having left toward the adjoining woods. A relative searched the yard with a gun but found no sign, hearing only distant gunshots and unfamiliar men shouting in the woods.
