Witness, "Giorgio" was driving from the funeral when he noticed a bright glow coming from a nearby forest. 

Out of curiosity and fear of a fire, he parked his car and went on foot to check the source. He took a camera with him. 

About 5 minutes later, in the forest, he heard a strange sound, like a metal "clang". He kept walking while the feeling of "being watched" came over him. 

Suddenly, looking to the left, he noticed a strange glowing figure, like a man, leaning against the trunk of a tree. At this point, the witness apparently tried to take 2 photos, but was unsuccessful. 

He watched the figure for about 30 seconds. He described a figure about 1 meter 60 cm tall, a squat, heavy figure with large donkey ears. A dark, spiral-shaped device came out of the mouth. He had large, deep-set, almond-shaped eyes that radiated a strange glow, and a small nose. He wore a loose tunic and white gloves. 

During the meeting, a witness noticed the smell of camphor in the area. The humanoid realized that the witness was approaching, suddenly turned around and quickly disappeared into the forest, using great agility and speed. 

The witness briefly tried to chase him, but the humanoid moved quickly.

The witness, “Giorgio” was on his way from a funeral when he noticed a bright glow coming from a nearby forest. Curios and fearing a fire, he parked his vehicle and went off on foot to check on the source. He took a camera with him. About 5 minutes into the woods he heard a strange sound resembling a sort of metallic “clatter.” He kept on walking while a feeling of “being watched,” crept over him. Suddenly, looking to his left he noticed a strange luminous human like figure leaning against the trunk of a tree. At this point the witness apparently attempted to take 2 photos but was unsuccessful. He observed the figure for about 30 seconds. Frightened, he described the figure as about 1 meter 60 cm in height, squat, and heavy set, with large donkey like ears. A dark spiral tube like device emerged from its mouth; he had large deep-set almond shaped eyes, which emitted a strange glow, and a small nose. It wore a loose fitting tunic and white gloves. During the encounter the witness noticed camphor like odor in the area. The humanoid became aware that the witness was approaching and suddenly turned around and quickly disappeared into the forest using great agility and speed. The witness briefly attempted to chase him but the humanoid moved to fast.
