A witness reports that during an evening (around 11 PM) in July 2009, while he is on his terrace, he hears an engine noise and sees passing above him a dark square shape with four bright points at the extremities. Frightened, he goes back inside his house but follows with his eyes the slow movement toward the South of the object before it disappears, hidden by the neighboring house. The recent questionnaire (from January 19, 2011) on this old observation gives us few details and makes any investigation impossible.
