KALISPELL, Mont. -- 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.

Ghillie suits are a type of full-body clothing made to resemble heavy foliage and used to camouflage military snipers.

Tenley was struck by vehicles driven by two girls, ages 15 and 17, who were unable to stop in time, authorities said.

Bigfoot sightings are as believable as obama sightings in Whashington during an election year.

Have you ever noticed that there are no really funny republican comics to speak of? They have no fans, just like you.

While this is a sad and unfortunate event, I really feel sorry for the two young teenage girls whose lives will forever be changed as a result of hitting and utlimately causing the death of this grown man, who used very poor judgment in his actions, whether on his own accord, or under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs or possibly mental issues. Very sad all the way around.
