Puddy Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 KALISPELL, Mont. (AP) — A man dressed in a military-style "ghillie" suit and apparently trying to provoke reports of a Bigfoot sighting in northwest Montana was struck by two cars and killed, authorities said. The man was standing in the right-hand lane of U.S. Highway 93 south of Kalispell on Sunday night when he was hit by the first car, according to the Montana Highway Patrol. A second car hit the man as he lay in the roadway, authorities said. Flathead County officials identified the man as Randy Lee Tenley, 44, of Kalispell. Trooper Jim Schneider said motives were ascertained during interviews with friends, and alcohol may have been a factor but investigators were awaiting tests. "He was trying to make people think he was Sasquatch so people would call in a Sasquatch sighting," Schneider told the Daily Inter Lake (spam.ly/PWJvA5) on Monday. "You can't make it up. I haven't seen or heard of anything like this before. Obviously, his suit made it difficult for people to see him." Ghillie suits are a type of full-body clothing made to resemble heavy foliage and used to camouflage military snipers. "He probably would not have been very easy to see at all," Schneider told KECI-TV (spam.ly/PkdWMO ). Tenley was struck by vehicles driven by two girls, ages 15 and 17, who were unable to stop in time, authorities said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pope Flick Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Maybe I'm getting older, but it was amusing until you read two teenage girls are the ones who hit him. That's just terrible, what an a-hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
