UTAH — A black man was seen in Utah today, obviously lost.

Residents spotted Malachi Johnson inside the borders of Utah today, having apparently taken a wrong turn somewhere along the way.

"Whoa, how did he get here?" said local man Roger Denison. "Poor guy must have really gotten turned around. I can't imagine how he got so off track. Hang on kiddos, we're going to pull over and see where he actually meant to go."

Denison reportedly pulled the family van to the side of the road and approached Johnson, stunning him with the news of his location. "Holy crap, I'm in Utah?" said Johnson. "No, no offense taken, I've plainly gone astray. This is, ah, not where I'm supposed to be. Can you point me in the right direction?"

At publishing time, the Utah state government had commissioned the construction of a monument at the site of the roadside meeting to commemorate the historic event.
