Account

The witness and their spouse were driving east on Route 9 around 5:30 a.m. when their headlights illuminated a small bipedal figure crossing the road. The figure ran very fast into swampy reeds near a brook and disappeared. They did not stop, and said it did not match any familiar local animal.
