Initial data
The witness was driving West towards Halbert when, after turning a bend at 15 mph, she saw standing on the right side of the road a strange figure about 5ft 5in (165 cm) tall, with a normal but slender body and large almond-shaped eyes. He was wearing a one-piece dark green metallic suit.
As she drove past, the car spun out of control, slamming into an embankment and then rising into the air. For one ten-foot (3 m) the jump landed on a pile of logs four feet (1.2 m) high, surrounded on three sides by trees.
She heard the "sound of static electricity" as she went out of control, and felt a concussion as the car landed on logs. Looking back, she saw that the figure was standing directly behind the car, which was now hissing.
She felt disoriented and put her head on the steering wheel. When she looked up, the figure was gone. She grabbed her purse and keys and jumped out of the car, running the two and a half miles home.
Her electric clock stopped at 16:50.
When she returned with her husband, they found not only her tracks, but also the tracks of a stranger in the shape of horse hooves with a heel whose toes seemed to have been dug 3/4 inch into the hard-Packed soil.
It took heavy machinery to pull the car out of the pile of logs. Only a small scratch was found on the car, and the witness drove it home.
UFO sightings followed in the area.

Summary: The witness was driving west toward Hulbert when, rounding a curve at 15 mph, she saw standing on the right side of the road a strange figure about 5 ft 5 inches tall, with a normal but slender body, and with large, almond shaped eyes that slanted around the sides of his head. He was wearing a one-piece, metallic dark green suit. As she passed, the car went out of control, hitting the embankment and then lifting into the air. In one ten-foot sweep, it then landed on top of a four-foot high pile of logs, encircled on three sides by trees. She heard “the sound of static electricity” as she went out of control, and felt a jar as the car landed atop the logs. Looking behind her, she saw the figure was standing directly behind the car, which was now hissing. She felt disoriented and lays her head on the steering wheel; when she looked up the figure was gone. She grabbed her purse and the keys and jumped from the car, running the two and a half miles home. Her electric watch stopped at 1650. When she returned with her husband, they found not only her footprints, but those of the stranger, as well, shaped like horse hoofs with a heel, the toes of which seemed to be dug 3/4 of an inch into the hard packed soil. It took heavy equipment to remove the car from the pile of logs; the car showed only a minor scratch, and the witness drove it home. UFO sightings followed in the area.
