STRASBOURG. - A couple of Alsatians, Mr. and Mrs. Joly, of Strasbourg-Neudorf, their son and a sister of Mrs. Joly observed, just before midnight, a strange celestial phenomenon, while they circulated by car on the E.D.F. road Rhinau-Strasbourg.
They stated that they saw an object with "yellow lighted lights, directed horizontally in relation to itself, and several other, red, lights".
The U.F.O., they added, initially moved in the opposite direction of the car, then made a U-turn very quickly to join the motorists before starting again in the opposite direction, always at high speed.
According to the gendarmes, no helicopters were flying over the area at that time.
