Driving along Highway No. 191, the couple pulled over to the side of the road after a short argument. They were at the intersection of County Road 46, it was still a little dark, but the sky was getting brighter. She stayed in the car, and her boyfriend got out of the truck to get some fresh air. When he was about to finish, he took a quick glance at the road behind them and noticed in the distance, a little less than a mile away, a figure on the side of the road, "hobbling" as she walked towards the truck. 

This surprised him, since they had not seen or passed a man since leaving Monticello. Standing there, he realized that it had increased in size, which means that it was approaching at an incredible speed.

Retreating, he shouted to his girlfriend:

"Get ready to leave soon!" 

On a full jerk, he crashed into his truck and jumped into the passenger seat, but found himself shouting with all his might at his girlfriend, ordering her:

"Go! Go! Go!" 

After slamming the door, he took one look back out the window as the truck pulled away and saw that what he said could only be described as the most lousy person / animal he had ever seen. 

He couldn't tell if it was in rags or if it was just a black animal in thick fur that was running / hobbling very fast, because it quickly caught up with his truck. According to him, the way the eyes looked, struck him with horror. They were very large, almost protruding, like a praying Mantis: eyeballs, but with pinpoint pupils. 

Too scared, he looked away at his wife, who was shaking uncontrollably. He got behind the wheel, realizing that she had also looked at this thing, her foot was still touching the gas pedal. 

Trying to calm her down, he held the steering wheel tightly for a good two minutes, finally, looking over his shoulder at the truck, he saw nothing. Half an hour later, they entered the city limits of Moab, Utah.

Summary: Driving on Highway 191 a couple had pulled off to the side of the road after arguing briefly. They were at the County Road 46 intersection and it was still a bit dark but the sky was getting brighter. She stayed in the car while her boyfriend stepped out of the truck to get some fresh air. As he was about to finish he took a quick glance at the road behind them and noticed in the distance, a little less than a mile, a figure on the side of the road “hobbling” as it walked toward the truck. This surprised him in that they hadn’t seen or passed a person since they left Monticello. As he stood there, he realized it grew in size, meaning that it approached at incredible speed.

Backing up, he yelled at his girlfriend, “Get ready to leave fast!” At a dead sprint he ran into his truck and jumped into the passenger side only to find himself screaming at the top of his lungs at his girlfriend, instructing her to, “Go! Go! Go!” Slamming his door, he took one glance back outside his window as the truck peeled off, and saw what he said can only be described as the most mangy looking human/animal he had ever seen. He couldn’t tell if it was in rags or just a heavy—coated black animal running/hobbling very fast, as it did quickly catch up to the side of his truck. According to him, the way the eyes looked struck him with terror. They were very large, almost bulging out as would as praying Mantis’s eyeballs, but with pinpoint pupils. Too afraid he looked away to his wife, who was starting to shake uncontrollably. He took the steering wheel realizing she also took a glance at this thing, her foot still flooring the accelerator. Trying to calm her down, he maintained a firm grip on the steering wheel for a good two minutes, finally looking over his shoulders outside the truck and saw, nothing. Half an hour later, they were driving into the city limits of Moab, Utah.
