While riding bicycle, teenager has afternoon, close encounter not far from Trinity River

As a boy riding his bicycle home on a trail through the woods on a hot clear afternoon, the witness felt watched and then heard brush thrashing as something kept pace with him. He raced to a more open trail and looked back to see a very tall, shaggy reddish-brown creature with dark bare facial skin standing at the tree line watching him. He reported a horrible stench filling the air and an absence of normal forest sounds, saying the sighting lasted about half a minute and left him avoiding the woods for months.

Sasquatch sighting near Paris, Texas

He concluded it had picked up his scent and returned, and his grandmother again said it meant no harm.
