What happened
Shortly before 5 a.m., a witness who had only just woken from a sleep filled with strange dreams reported seeing a very bright white ball. According to the witness, it moved slowly, changed color and became smaller as it was watched.
The gendarmes investigated the case and concluded that little credit could be given to the account. The GEIPAN classified the case as B (probably identified), with the conclusion that the witness had observed a slowly moving ball.
