Initial data
Edward Atteri was driving his pickup near Rockland when, in a remote location his engine failed, and his radio was filled with static electricity. When he came out, he saw a pink light settling on the trees nearby.
He tried to start the truck again, but couldn't. The pink light went out, and he saw through the tree a large round object on the ground.
A moment later, he saw a figure walking towards him with high, sharp steps. The figure was taller than a normal-sized man, had a long face that took up two-thirds of its height, and long arms that hung almost to the ground. His legs were short and squat.
The creature stopped when it saw the witness, and the witness saw two long oval yellow eyes moving up and down, apparently looking at it. Then, with a " Oh " sound, the creature turned and ran.
Etterof ran to his truck and as he tried the engine, he saw a pink light rising into the sky.
As soon as he was out of sight, the engine started. Other Rockland residents reportedly saw the pink-lit object fly over it.

Edward Etterof was driving his pickup near Rockland when, in a remote location his engine quit, and static filled his radio. Getting out, he saw a pink colored light settling into the trees nearby. He tried again to restart the truck but could not. The pink light went out and he could see through the tree a large round object on the ground. In a moment he saw a figure walking toward him in high, loping strides. Taller than a normal sized man, the figure had a long face that took up two thirds of its entire height, and long arms that dangled almost to the ground; its legs were short and squat. The creature stopped upon seeing the witness, and the witness saw two long, oval, yellow eyes that moved up and down, apparently looking at him. Then, with an “oohing” sound, the creature turned and ran. Etterof ran to his truck and as he tried the engine, he saw the pink light ascend into the sky; as soon as it vanished from sight, the engine turned over. Others in Rockland reportedly saw the pink-lighted object fly over.
