SAN ANTONIO \u2013 What started as a routine morning walk quickly turned into a disturbing scene for Almeda Hill, who says she discovered a body<\/a> along San Pedro Creek on Friday.<\/p>\n

Hill, who works along Furnish Avenue near South San Marcos, said she often begins her day walking along the creek. But on Friday morning, her routine was interrupted by a sight she said she won\u2019t forget.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight down there, they were face down,\u201d Hill said, describing where she saw the body.<\/p>\n

Hill said she immediately walked away after realizing what she had seen.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs soon as I saw it, I walked away, because of course, now I can\u2019t get that image out of my head,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

According to the San Antonio Police Department, officers were called to the area around 9 a.m. after receiving reports of a person in high water near San Pedro Creek.<\/p>\n

Police and fire crews responded and pulled the person from the water. They were unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.<\/p>\n

The person has not yet been identified, and the investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n

Hill said it\u2019s common to see people walking or biking along the creek, which made the situation even more unsettling.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ll see people walking or doing bike rides back and forth,\u201d she said. \u201cI have no idea how he got there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hill said she plans to continue her daily walks in the area. Still, she acknowledged the emotional impact of what she witnessed.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce you see something like that, you\u2019re never going to forget that,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
