On November 24, 1977, at 7:20 a.m., a witness observed the passage of an oval-shaped object the size of a rugby ball. It emitted a bright light and moved along an east-north trajectory before turning around, coming back in the opposite direction over the same distance, and disappearing hidden by the urban landscape. The observation lasted about thirty seconds, with no particular noise heard. No other testimony was collected about this phenomenon, for which we lack information.
