Account

Late at night the witness was driving slowly on a rural road when reflective eyes were seen ahead on the opposite side. A large thick-legged figure crossed the road in front of the car, briefly turning its torso to look at the driver before continuing into a roadside ditch. The witness drove slowly past within a few feet, then sped away feeling watched without looking back.
