The four young men were returning home and driving along an isolated road in a flat swampy area when they realized they had taken the wrong turn, onto a narrow dirt road bordered by a ditch. 

Suddenly, eight meters ahead, a seven-foot (2.1 m) tall figure appeared in the headlights. The creature was dressed in a white fluorescent one-piece suit with boots, it had no noticeable facial features, and it had very short arms ending in claws, it also had a box with two flashing red lights on its chest. The figure took two steps toward the witnesses and suddenly stopped. 

The witnesses, now in a state of panic, left the area and drove to a nearby farm, where authorities were notified.
