Road crossing and a close call with a vehicle during the day outside Hanson
Account
The witness was driving in heavy rain in the early afternoon when a large hair-covered figure entered the road to cross. The figure nearly collided with an oncoming minivan, twisting and raising its arms to avoid contact before continuing into dense woods. The witness braked, stopped, and later checked the treeline but saw nothing further.
