Incident date:

Location:

Чаффи, MO

United States

The witness was driving at 55 mph when he saw a curved, dull-colored, aluminum-colored creature running down the road and slowing down to 40 mph.

The creature looked like a huge aluminum-colored "cockroach man" with very long legs that looked like it was running on its knees. He was at least seven feet tall, but he couldn't see his face or his eyes, and he hunched over as he ran.

At first, he looked like a deer, until he ran past the truck so fast that the witness could not see his legs moving, it was more like running around. It looks like he had some hands; the witness did not see the wings, but moved as if they were there.

The creature flew from ten feet (3 m) at the passenger side door to thirty feet (9 m) in front of the truck. The witness then accelerated to 65 mph and passed the creature, then looked over his shoulder and saw the creature running after them.
