What happened
At around 10:20 p.m., a witness inside their apartment saw a cylindrical object flying. Flashing lights were visible beneath it. The object made no sound and moved more slowly than an airplane.
It first followed a straight path, then turned back and began to climb. The sighting lasted about ten minutes.
The GEIPAN classified the case as C: no further information is available, so the data are insufficient to determine what the witness saw.
