Incident #992803
Smithfield, Jefferson Cty, Ohio
1988
Account
Chris Green and his father were driving on the road from Friendship Lake to Smithfield when they saw two white hairy creatures, larger than men, carrying a large object (size of a pickup truck's bed) down a hill beside the road, apparently towards a pond formed in an old strip mine. When the men stopped their truck to watch them the creatures dropped the object and tried to hide in the bush, without success. The witnesses decided to turn the truck around for a better view, but this took about a minute and when they got back everything was gone.
