Account

The witness and a companion were returning home in the early morning when a figure crossed the road in front of them from left to right. Both said they saw it, describing reddish-colored hair, bipedal movement, rapid motion, an estimated height of about six feet, and reddish eyes. They did not compare details until later that day, when they found their descriptions matched.
