According to Reed, in October 1996, he encountered a humanoid alien in the woods, which allegedly killed his dog. Reed claimed to have knocked the alien unconscious and took it home, later observing it to be alive. He reported mysterious people surveilling his house and the alien eventually escaping. Skeptics have raised questions about the authenticity of Reed’s claims and videos, suggesting it could be a hoax. Reed, originally named Jonathan Bradley Rutter, has maintained his story despite criticism.
