Four-wheeler riders are observed by a tall white biped at dusk near Philpot

September 2005 dusk, right before dark Philpot, Daviess County, Kentucky 2 witnesses

Account

The witness was driving an ATV with his brother as passenger along a wooded ridge trail at dusk to check a soybean field for deer. The passenger noticed a tall white figure to the left of the trail, and the driver stopped within about 50 yards to look at it. The two stared at the figure briefly before the driver looked down at the ATV controls, and when he looked up the figure was running away through the woods.
