UFOs in the daily Press:

A UFO OVER THE CITY?

An unidentified flying object was seen Monday morning above Carignan, by an Yvois resident going to work. Te latter, foreman at the La Foulerie factories, wants to remain anonymous, but his common sense and his reputation among people who know him suggest that his words have a basis that the future will perhaps explain to us. He himself says:

"It was around 6:40 a.m. Monday morning, I was going to work like every day on a moped. As I was driving along rue Jean-Baptiste Clément, I saw a light that I noticed at first taken for a glow caused by arc welding. It seemed to me to come from the Témans brickworks, near the main road and I thought that someone was already working there. Then the glow appeared another time to me and finally a third.

"At that moment I turned my head in the direction from which it came and I saw a flat, whitish disk for which it was difficult to evaluate a diameter given the distance and especially a thickness. The lights that I had seen seemed to come from above and below the disc. It was then located very approximately near the railway line, at the height of the three bridges, and stood about 60 meters from the ground. Then suddenly, I saw a light rotating above the disc which gave the impression of illuminating like a lighthouse at the seaside. It then left in the direction of Sedan, quite quickly and I was then obscured by a hill."

Not being subject to hallucinations and not believing in flying saucers, the witness went to his work without saying anything but of course thinking that someone had seen the same thing as him. However, it seems that none of his co-workers had followed this phenomenon and he therefore decided to tell them what he had seen, then to go and make a statement to the gendarmerie.

No clue for the moment has come to corroborate or destroy this story, however, since the good faith of the witness cannot be called into question, one is wmdering about this phenomenon. All possibilities that could lead to a logical explanation have been considered. Neither a plane nor a meteorite could have stopped in the air, and from the place where the witness was one cannot see the catenaries of the locomotives which could have caused sparks.

The future or future testimonies will undoubtedly explain this phenomenon to us.
