On September 16, 2009 at 4:26 a.m., a witness observed in the sky a phenomenon he could not explain. He reported to the gendarmerie having observed a material shape at the end of a cloud. The object was round with three or four lit windows. Beneath this object, he also noted the presence of a bar, itself topped with an ovoid light moving laterally from left to right. The phenomenon was stationary, at low altitude, and was visible for more than five minutes. No other testimony was collected on this phenomenon, and no other information was provided during the gendarmerie investigation. Despite the request from GEIPAN, the witness did not provide additional information, which does not allow any precise investigation. The case is classified as C due to lack of information.
