Believe it or not, a bigfoot sighting has been reported in Panola County.
A caller whom Panola County Sheriff Jack Ellett referred to as a reliable source contacted the Sheriff’s Office Thursday evening, October 3, 2012, to report the sighting around 9 p.m. He said he knew it sounded crazy, but he thought he had seen a bigfoot creature. He said he would have felt bad if someone got hurt by the creature, so he notified the authorities of the sighting as a precaution.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, the caller said he was headed home from Louisiana and when he crossed the state line on FM 123, he saw the creature. He said it was really big and strange looking. It was crouched down in the ditch, and as he drove by, it stood up. The creature appeared to be 7 feet in height, and had yellow eyes, the caller stated. He said it was very creepy looking, and although he knew it could be someone pulling a prank, but if it was, the person did a better make-up job than Hollywood.
The caller assured the dispatcher he was not crazy, had not been drinking and would take a lie detector test to prove it if needed.
PSCO Deputy Adam Jones was sent to check the area. He through the area but was unable to locate Bigfoot.
