Class B First-hand BFRO #77455

Object throwing near Purvis, Mississippi (2012)

August 2012 Late afternoon between 4 and 6 pm Purvis, Lamar County, Mississippi 2 witnesses

Account

In late August 2012, the witness was exploring the edge of a swamp with a relative when a very heavy pine root fell from high in the air and landed nearby. The witness watched its trajectory and judged it too heavy to have been thrown by a person, noting no one should reasonably be in the swamp at that season. No creature was seen during this incident.
