3 people with flashlights (Bob Strong, Sybil Champion, and an anonymous man) discovered a tall man standing at the edge of a wood, clad in a one-piece close fitting garment, shiny "as if made of leatherette;" his face was pale, and on his head he wore a black hood or helmet. He suddenly vanished. A 4th witness, the man's wife, had been very much frightened by seeing this being; she had gone to the copse to investigate a sound like a swarm of bees, and found herself paralyzed when she saw the man. When she brushed against his clothing it made a crackling sound. Later, recovering in her husband's car, she suddenly started to run back toward the wood again, and had to be dragged back to the car. Then a torpedo shaped red luminous UFO rose with a droning sound, and flew away. The next day, a pear-shaped or crescent impression was found in the grass 650 yards behind the copse, as well as large footprints in the copse, showing crisscross ridges on the soles.
