Witness Account:
I was driving down FM 521 away from the power plant one night when I thought I saw a tall shadow in a pasture on the side of the road ahead of me. It looked almost like a bear or a large man standing up. As I got closer I noticed two small red eyes reflecting on my headlights looking at me from the shadow. At first I thought it was just a horse because there are horses near the pasture that I saw the shadow in but then I noticed that the eyes were up higher, smaller, at a different angle and distance from that of a horse's eyes.
It was very tall and seemed to be standing up straight. I couldn't see much detail because it was so dark out but I could see a slight outline by the light from the plastics plant behind it.
The experience was very frightening, growing up nearby in Wadsworth TX I had heard people say they had seen Sasquatch in the area but I never thought I'd see something.
I hadn't thought of it in a while until I saw the other sighting near the area. Thank you for listening!
