A bright, golden light 80 meters away, floating three meters above ground, and a dark figure the size of a man, with wings like a bat.

Four teenagers, among them painter John Flaxton, while walking on a country road, saw a moving star turn into a reddish glow coming toward them, then disappearing behind some trees. Shortly thereafter, a bright, golden light was seen 80 meters away, floating three meters above ground, and a dark figure the size of a man, with wings like a bat, came toward them. They fled in terror.


An object was observed. Ground traces were found.

One red ball, about 20 feet across, around 300 feet away, was observed in clear weather by four male witnesses, typical age 17, on a road for a few seconds (Croucher; Flaxton). One 6-foot-tall mothman was seen.
