			{{quoteboxgreen\|I wish I got a shot from the front, he was wearing a bra that he obviously stuffed with paper. Pretty disturbing to see honestly. He forgot his wallet at the checkout and literally ran out of the store and ran back in with a womens style wallet to pay for the cartload of laundry detergent he was buying.}}

			On 7 [[October 2020]], Chris was seen driving in [[Ruckersville]], Virginia near Legacy Church by [[Reddit]] user mateochamplain who soon shared info to r/ChrisChanSonichu minutes later:<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/ChrisChanSonichu/comments/j6y2uk/just_spotted_in_ruckersville_345pm_oct_7_2020/ ([https://archive.fo/3ImQu archive])</ref>
			{{quoteboxgreen\|JUST SPOTTED IN RUCKERSVILLE! 3:45PM OCT 7, 2020. (Sorry for the horrible photo taking while driving, but I can assure you the plate said SONICHU, and inside was the one and only.)<br>
			[[File:7 October 2020 Ruckersville sighting1.jpg\|200px]]}}
			The user also shared more in the comments:
			{{quoteboxgreen\|I have lived in Ruckersville for 5 years and have run into Chris Chan several times. Here is a photo I snapped of his previous vehicle:<br>[[File:"Sonichu Mobile" posted 15 March 2017.jpg\|200px]]
			[''The above image is from the linked Imgur post which was posted on 15 [[March 2017]].'']

			This will likely be the last time I ever see him as I am moving away to upstate New York this weekend.

			Edit: here is an extra alternate photo:<br>

			{{quoteboxgreen\|Lol tbh I'm just glad to see he's still around, I haven't seen him out in quite a while. I have walked past him in the grocery stores a few times and easily could have taken up close pictures with him but I haven't.}}
			{{quoteboxpurple\|Was this your first sighting of sonichu?}}
			{{quoteboxgreen\|Probably fifth. First sighting of the new Sonichu van though.}}
