Account
Art Dandridge was driving southwest on state road 407 across the flood plain of the St. John River, a mile past the I-95 overpass when he saw a figure lurching and limping on a bridge ahead. He had to swerve to miss it, and it waved its arms up and down as he passed. He stopped and looked back. It was standing motionless. He watched for half a minute, then drove off. Half an hour later there was another sighting two miles away. 1725
