Police witness in Haute-Savoie, France
On June 10, 2010, between 10:30 PM and 11:00 PM, a witness observed from the terrace of their home a luminous point that intrigued them; it was stationary to the southeast for about 15 minutes before moving toward the northeast and disappearing, hidden by the landscape. Following the police report, the investigations carried out by the Gendarmerie did not make it possible either to recontact the main witness or the other witnesses named. No fast means of communication (telephone, email address) allowed contact to be made with the witness. The time elapsed since the observation and the information contained in the report do not allow the investigations to go further, nor to conduct an inquiry. The duration (unverifiable) and the brief description by a single witness of the phenomenon leave the door open to all hypotheses (airplane in a holding pattern?, balloon with its payload underneath ('circular shape with a plume underneath?'), something else?). The case is classified as C due to lack of information.
