Afternoon highway crossing near Felch

Account

A woman driving east in daylight saw a tall black-haired upright figure cross the two-lane highway in front of her and disappear into brush on the other side. She stopped, locked her doors, waited, then drove to the crossing point and searched but could not locate where it entered the brush. She said it was too big to be human and took very long strides.
