Driving home, 69-year-old witness saw object in opposite lane of highway, slowed down to look; headlights illuminated strange vehicle with curved, transparent front, behind which could be seen a figure from the waist up, with arms raised over head, as if in terror. Figure seemed "a little taller than a tall man," with long, narrow ears that stuck straight out of sides of head and a square face with hair "sticking straight out from the sides," brown, furry arms and fur, or hair (skin or garment uncertain) on torso. The eyes were large and protruding (according to newspaper artist's conception). Bosak, frightened by the strange appearance, sped by passing within 6 ft; the car darkened, as if in shadow, and "a kind of whooshing sound" was heard. No traces were found next day.
