REPORT DETAIL

Description of event: I had just gotten off work about an hour an a half earlier and I was just arriving home. I work at nights in another town.

As I was driving south on Hwy. 95 coming down a small hill on the north end of town, the vehicle that was traveling in the same direction right in front of me had hit the brakes and I had thought I seen someone run in front of that vehicles headlights, so I had also hit my brakes and we had both come to a stop on the road. Whatever it was in the headlights of the car in front of me stood on the centerline and didn't move.

A semi-truck that was coming towards us (North on Hwy.95) had hit their bright lights and blinked them off and on and whatever that thing was in the middle of the road ran back to the right side of the road and then came running right back out across the road, right in front of that semi-truck. And from the outline of it, I could clearly see that it was no person and it was no animal!!

It was on two legs when it ran across the highway. It was huge and I could clearly see that it had a lot of hair or fur on it. It kinda slumped when it ran across the road towards the canal. The vehicle in front of me took off so fast from a standstill stop. It took me awhile to get my car in gear and go. By the time I had reached the bridge and was going over that, the car that was in front of me was already going up the hill by the junction where Hwy. 95 runs into Alt. 95. I don't blame the driver of the vehicle that was in front of me for wanting to get out of there so fast. Had I not lived here in this town, I would have kept going too. I live about a mile and a half of where this thing had been seen. I have never seen something like this before and I wish to god that I had never seen whatever that thing was. It gave me such a chill that I sped all the way home and when I got into my driveway, I jumped out of my car and I ran for the front door. I was shaking so bad, I couldn't even get the key in the lock.

When I finally got inside my house, I was shaking so bad and I was on the verge of tears. I woke my daughter up and told her what I had just seen and I double checked all the windows and doors to make sure they were all locked up tight. And I have never been that scared before to just freeze up and it was like my hair stood on end. The canal that the thing ran towards runs just across the way from my home here. After what I had just seen about 2 1/2 hours ago, I am scared to even go to sleep now. Just thinking that whatever that thing may be is outside, right this moment, is somewhere walking around other peoples homes as they sleep, is more than enough to scare anyone. I wasn't sure about even saying anything about this to anyone, but I needed to tell someone. As for the other people that seen what I did, I know what they're thinking and believe me, I still can't believe it either. Just knowing that I wasn't the only one to have seen that thing earlier right in the middle of the highway gives me some validation that I am not losing my mind here. After tonight I will never doubt things that people see and tell about. Seeing is definitely believing!!
