Traveler observes a tall biped in a cornfield north of Bethany Beach

August 2010 roughly 10:15 AM Milford, Sussex County, Delaware 1 witness

Account

While riding in the back of a minivan through farm country on Route 1 in Delaware, the witness looked out at a cornfield and noticed a dark brown shape standing among the dried stalks about 300 feet away. She watched it for 5-10 seconds as the vehicle passed, describing a wide, tall shape showing head and shoulders above the corn. No other occupants of the van reported seeing it, and she did not film it.
