Account
Brian McCune was riding a four wheeler on an old gravel road 4 miles from the nearest house when he saw what he took for a dog 200 yards ahead in a corn field. As he got closer it stood up from a kneeling position and ran to the middle of the road, turned to look at him and then ran in the woods on the other side of the road. He fled.
