MARSEILLE, Tuesday.
Was Marseilles been chosen - as its name already seems to indicate - as the terrestrial capital by the Martians?
Several residents of the Sainte-Marguerite district are not far from thinking so.
The police, in fact, received, Monday evening from 9:10 p.m., six calls from residents of Sévigné Park who had seen - according to Marius - a sort of red disk stopping above their area, then turn yellow then green and, finally, fly away in one go.
When the police arrived on site, the mysterious object had disappeared.
Because, according to the latest news, the flying object in Sévigné Park appears to be a helicopter which flew over the neighborhood at the time the police station was alerted.
