Moselle, France · 1993-08-07 · from the GEIPAN archive
On August 7, at 10:45 p.m., a witness driving his car observed for about one minute a large, very intense white light that was stationary. When the light disappeared, a whistling sound was heard and a black shape seemed to disappear at very high speed. The next day, the witness felt muscle pain, and returning to the scene, he was struck by severe headaches at the location of the observation. The investigation showed that there was no air traffic in the area, and the phenomenon remains unexplained.
