Account

While riding as a passenger on a late-night highway drive from Texas toward Colorado, the witness saw a small white-haired upright figure with a dark face standing beside the road in the headlights. Minutes later after stopping, the driver independently said he had also seen something white and furry behind them. The two agreed the figure had two legs and was not a coyote, but they left without investigating because a sick companion needed to get home.
