AnomalyOn June 6, 2013 at 8:50 a.m., while walking in the street, a witness notices the presence in the sunny sky of a beige and gray oval object that rotates on itself. No particular noise is heard during the observation of the object, which remains stationary. Another person also makes the observation. Only one testimony will be collected. The witness observes in the sky for 6 minutes a motionless shape but rotating on itself. This description clearly evokes a captive helium-filled balloon, probably a novelty balloon or advertising balloon. GEIPAN classifies this case "B": probable observation of a captive novelty balloon.
