A triangle shape in Val-de-Marne, France

On the night of September 28, 1983, several witnesses, including police officers, saw a luminous object in the sky. Located between 2000 and 2500 meters in altitude and drifting southward, the object took on a round or triangular shape at times. No pilot and no radar trace made any mention of this object, which was nevertheless photographed by the witnesses. No other information could be gathered about this sighting.
