Small humanoid seen; physiological effects. An unidentified object at close range and its occupants were observed by one male 46-year-old witness on a road for over one minute (Brown, N). Two 5.5-foot-tall bronze-skinned beings, each wearing a brown jacket and pants, were seen.
Nathan Brown, a 46-year old Maori, was walking home when he saw a light, and came upon two men sitting with their backs to the road and their feet in a ditch, while a pale young woman with white shoulder length hair lay across the ditch. She wore a long white gown that covered her feet. The men merely sat in a relaxed attitude looking down at the woman; they were about 5 ft 6 inches in height, had dark brown skins and crew-cut hair, and wore brown pants and jackets. Brown questioned the men but go no response; when he stepped closer to see what was wrong with the woman, he ran into an invisible barrier, which he likened "to a bar across the stomach." He tried to grab one of the men but was again prevented by the repelling force; after this, he ran off, "shaking like a leaf." The light he saw was a luminous haze, having no visible source. Brown found marks at the site the following day.
