Red lights in Indre-et-Loire, France

On June 19, 1980 at 11:45 PM, a child saw his room light up and spotted through the window a triangular-shaped craft. Fixed or flashing lights illuminated the object, which moved without making any noise. The base of the craft was lit in yellow, and on the sides, yellow and red lights arranged alternately were flashing. A red beacon light came on strongly when the side lights reached the top. Frightened, the child called his mother, and together they saw the craft disappear into the landscape. At the time of the observation, the sky was cloudy. No other information was collected on this phenomenon, for which we lack information.
