A Toledo, Ohio couple is in their car when they observe 2 large quadruped 'shadows' in the headlights. They have no idea what they saw but the impressive size made a distinct impact on them.
I received the following account:
"Hi, Lon. This happened in 2016. I'm not sure of the exact date but I do know that it was cooler outside possibly, late fall or early winter. I live in Toledo, Ohio. If you're not familiar with that area it basically sits on the border of the Ohio-Michigan state line and about 15-20 minutes from the Indiana border, so around here we just call it NW Ohio. Toledo is a very populated city but it also has tons of woods and forest-type areas within the city limits. So even in the city, you'll see an occasional deer, fox, skunk, and all types of wildlife. To my knowledge, Toledo doesn't have bears roaming around, especially in the city.
This incident took place maybe a block away from our zoo. Toledo has one of the best zoos in the USA, but really just known for the Christmas light display. At this time I worked in home health care with MRDD individuals so I would have to work inside the homes for extended hours. My shift was 2-11 pm. Every night I picked my girlfriend up from work around 9 pm and she would just sit with me at work while I finished my shift. Each night when we got back to my job (the house) I would tell my client (MRDD/Resident of the house) to go unlock his house door and turn on the porch light so we could see. So he unlocked the door while me and my girlfriend stayed behind in my car.
Now back then I had a 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis and most cars have automatic headlights that turn off a few seconds after you turn the engine off but this car had a toggle switch to manually turn the headlights on or off. So I hit the toggle switch to turn my headlights off and I mean as soon as I turned my headlights off me and my girlfriend saw these two big things just dash down the street ahead. Like I said earlier in the story I am on a residential street parked on the right-hand curb side maybe half a block but no more than 60-70 yards from the 4-way stop. My car was facing north at this point and the two huge black things came from the east of that 4 way stop running west. Now the direction those things ran was a direct path to Walbridge Park and the Maumee River. I'm sorry if it's hard to visualize all of this but I'm trying my best.
What makes this so scary is the feeling that I had as soon as I saw them. I struggled to breathe and I didn't want to breathe too loud or anything. It was just so odd. As far as a description I didn't see any facial features or anything very specific (eye color/shape, lips mouth, or nose). I saw a HUGE outline of two big “things” running on all fours. Although these things ran on all fours in my mind I felt as if that wasn't the natural way it got around, if that makes sense. I never saw them in a stationary position, so while running or galloping it was at least 5 and a half maybe 6 feet tall. The galloping and running motion was very elusive and they were running in sync. From the outline, it was just bulky/muscular and I could tell this because from what I assume to be the backs or shoulders you could see like huge lumps or muscles. Another odd fact was these things looked to be running with their heads straight down like a raging bull and something was sticking up from the neck/head area. This whole encounter only lasted about 5-7 seconds enough time to see them take about 3 gallops or strides.
After seeing them my girlfriend flipped out. I mean she was calm but she didn't want to be in that car any longer. To be honest we didn't really talk about it once we got inside the house. We had other encounters that made us revisit this one. If I saw those two things stand straight up I'd guess anywhere from 8-11 feet tall. On all fours, it looked like a minivan but bigger not as long as a van just the pure size." J
