Vehicle shaken in a remote desert location near Grand View

March 2011 around 10:30 pm Grand View, Owyhee County, Idaho 1 witness

Account

The witness spent the night in a parked car in a gravel pit with a dog while watching a movie on a laptop. Something abruptly pushed the rear of the car down about a foot, jolting the vehicle. The witness looked out, saw nothing in the darkness, and heard nothing leaving. The dog stayed curled up tightly without barking, which the witness described as highly unusual, and no tracks or marks were found the next morning.
