On June 30, 1979 at around 11:30 PM, motorists were driving on a secondary road when they spotted a glowing light in the sky. A luminous point, at first stationary, gradually moved, drawing closer to the witnesses. Two red and green lights on each side of the point blinked alternately. A blowing sound was heard as it passed over the frightened witnesses, and a triangular shape was seen. The craft quickly moved away toward the south. This information matches nighttime descriptions of aircraft flights (noise, geometry, and color of lights). These witnesses probably observed the passage of an airplane.

Tell us what you sawIf this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
