According to the ufology magazine Lumières Dans La Nuit of October 1973, the Centre-Matin newspaper for November 6, 1954, reported a sighting in Commentry in the Allier that would have occurred in early November.
Three peacekeepers, including Mr. Franceis, observed during their patrol a flying saucer crossing the sky.
[Ref. ldl1:] UFOLOGY MAGAZINE "LUMIERES DANS LA NUIT":
Beginning of November (Centre Matin for 11/6) Commentry.
Three law enforcment officers, among them Mr. Franceis, observe on patrol a FS corssing the sky.

The witness, a peacekeeper, and two colleagues saw a saucer crossing the sky like a shooting star (Centre Matin for 11/06/54)
[Ref. ioi1:] UFOLOGY BULLETIN "INFO OVNI":
055 11/../54 .. h. Commentry
Fast passage of a saucer
The information is far too poor for an assured evaluation; there is no date, no time, no direction, for example.
The "flying saucer" crossing the sky could have been a meteor, for example the meteor seen on November 5, 1954, in the Allier also.
