Manlike form seen crossing road at night in a thunderstorm near McKague

July 1995 past midnight Sylvania/Tisdale, Saskatchewan 2 witnesses

Account

In 1995 the witness was riding in the backseat of a car driving home from Barrier Lake after midnight in rain and thunderstorms, watching the ditch for deer. During lightning flashes the witness saw a tall, featureless black human-like figure run from a field across the ditch and road in front of the vehicle into the treeline. Only the witness and the front passenger who were watching that side saw it; the driver and others did not notice it.
