Account

The witness was driving east in a work van when they saw a tall, brownish-grey upright figure walking just inside a woodline about 100 yards from the road. The figure moved east then turned south toward the river and was seen between trees for about 10 seconds. Other drivers behind the witness also slowed, which the witness thought was to look at the same thing.
