Taxi Driver incident.
4' Green shape drifted out into road, 4' tall triangle. Radio frequency interference: radio quit, high-pitched squeaking noise. At 5' away, triangle vanished. An object was observed. Electromagnetic effects were noted.One green triangle, about 5 feet across, was observed in rainy weather by one male 24-year-old witness on a road for six seconds (Wright). A high-pitched sound was heard. A robot was seen.
During a spate of encounters in the area, including a car pace, a taxi driver spotted a bizarre humanoid shape crossing Sugarloaf Road in front of him. The shape was described as green in color about one and a half meters tall and 3/4 meters wide at the base, it tapered to a narrow top. The shape drifted out into the road and at the same time the taxi radio emitted a high-pitched squeal as the driver broke hard stopping only 5 meters from the shape. The figure then just vanished into thin air.
