In Quarouble

A mysterious craft would have
indeed landed on the railway track

Suspicious traces were found on the disused railway track, where Mr. Marius Dewilde claims to have seen a flying saucer, posed during the night from Friday to Saturday. After carefully examining the sleepers near P.N. 79, air police inspectors noticed that one of them bore symmetrically arranged marks, a kind of "claw", we were told, at the Onnaing police station.

The wood received deep prints in five different locations and investigators believe they may have been caused when the craft landed.

In addition, some of the stones from the ballast were removed. Their appearance and abnormal arrangement caught the attention of the inspectors. However, no footprints were noticed around the house. But it may be that the paths hardened in this place by the passage of many cattle did not keep track of the strange little beings seen by Mr. Dewilde.

Let's add that several people, including a young man from Onnaing, said they saw Friday around 10:30 p.m., a luminous ball moving towards the West.
