‘Leprechaun-alien’ Snapped

THIS tiny elf-like figure dubbed the “leprechaun-alien” was caught on camera as he flees a forest.

The wee chap - who looks no taller than 3ft - can be seen running from the woodland just as a tourist whipped out his camera.

He was snapped in Lake Tahoe, USA, by holidaymaker Lloyd Deneau, who paused to take a picture of the stunning trees and caught the extraordinary teeny figure.

Lloyd, 41, from Florida, swears the image has not been doctored.

Aliens

“When I took the picture I’m sure there was no one there,” he said.

“It was only when I downloaded it on my camera that I saw it.

“I showed it to my friends and family but no one can explain it.

“My kids coined it the leprechaun-alien.”

He added: “I have a military background and don’t really believe in aliens, but I can’t explain this.”

As well as an elf, leprechaun and alien, the figure has even been described as a baby BIGFOOT
