What happened

At around 6:45 p.m., a witness noticed a motionless light in the sky shaped like a boomerang. It was golden yellow. The witness watched it through binoculars for almost an hour, until it disappeared.

No other testimony or additional information could be gathered on this observation. GEIPAN described the phenomenon as a fixed, bright light in the shape of a boomerang and classified the case C, meaning the available data are insufficient to reach a conclusion.
