AnomalyOn July 11, 1976 at around 10:05 PM, two people noticed the presence of a stationary luminous phenomenon, circular in shape and bright red in color. The distant observation (about 2 km) did not allow any details to be made out. While one of the witnesses was looking for his binoculars, the phenomenon moved toward the West and then disappeared. No other testimony was collected. The gendarmerie investigation, which went to the scene with the witnesses, determined the presence of a dirt path 50 meters long that joins, to the West, an unclassified local road unknown to the witnesses. The hypothesis of a vehicle passing by was considered. But given the observation distance and the few details provided, no element allows the phenomenon to be identified.
