The witness was backing out of the driveway with family at dusk when headlights illuminated a tall, broad, grayish-blond creature standing about 40 yards away near an oak tree. The creature faced the witness with its arms at its sides. After the witness briefly looked away to alert a relative, the creature was gone.
