Class B First-hand BFRO #47067

ATV riders near Berea have scary ride out of woods at night

BFRO YEAR: Sep 2014 night, around 2230 to 2300 Berea, Madison County, Kentucky 5 witnesses

Account

The witness and four companions were riding ATVs at night when they heard a single loud branch snap followed by dead silence. After moving to a clearing, a large log and then a limestone slab were thrown from an uphill wooded area toward a companion's ATV, barely missing the rider. Loud thumps and breaking branches suggesting something heavy running downhill followed, and the group started their vehicles and left quickly.
