The witness had been hitchhiking home to Kingsville from Pleasanton and was standing along the highway (281) in the southernmost part of Pleasanton trying to thumb a ride into Kingsville. The sun had already gone down and the temperature was dropping rather rapidly. There was a full moon rising with partly cloudy skies. He had been standing there for about 3 hours but without any luck. He decided to then walk along the highway in order to keep warm and smoke some cigarettes. He made it to the top of a hill without any trouble and began to pace himself thinking he might have to walk all night. About a mile further down the highway he heard a movement in the brush off to his right. Something told him to turn around and look back to Pleasanton, but he promptly dismissed the sounds as cattle moving. After another two miles of walking, he suddenly looked to his right (west) and what he saw brought cold chills soaring up and down his spine. Every hair on his head felt as if they were standing on end, and his skin was crawling with goose bumps. All his primitive instincts of danger had come alive. Attempting to regain some self-control he noticed three glowing red balls or spheres of light with the one in the middle being bigger and slightly higher than the two smaller ones. At that time they were about 200 yards off the fence line and about 150 feet off the ground.
