Over 7' tall giant, wore silver suit with box-shaped helmet, 3' wide with luminous glow. No face visible. Dog went mad, then died.
Electromagnetic effects were noted. A witness later died. An unidentified object at close range and its occupants were observed by two witnesses at a house for ten minutes (Coombs). One 7.5-foot-tall giant, wearing a silver luminous suit, was seen.
Mrs Pauline Coombs, 31, and her husband Billy, 36, were watching the television at their Ripperston farm when they saw at a window a silver suited figure. Pauline having seen it first, said nothing to her husband until he himself saw it. "It must have been over 7-foot tall, because they could not see its face." It was three feet wide, surrounded by a luminous glow; its box shaped helmet framed a dark square area in which no face was visible. They called the investigator and the police immediately, but the figure was gone before they arrived. Mrs Coombs and her family has been involved in several other incidents prior and after this encounter.
