ALSACAT-2014-10-05-UNGERSHEIM-1
"OVNI-France.fr" is a French UFO website that essentially publishes UFO sighting reports they receive. Among those, I found this one in May 2015:
"flanelle68" reports that on October 5, 2014, at 01:45 a.m., she was in the area of Ungersheim in the Haut-Rhin, driving on the "Florival" road between Mulhouse and Guebwiller at the level of the park of The Little Prince, when she saw in the sky four white / orange luminous dots moving to the direction of Mulhouse.
Looking in her rearview mirror she found that the luminous dots were gone "even before they had time to make a U-turn."
She regrets not having been able to stop to film the scene.

Opened near Ungersheim since Summer 2014 like by chance, so not well-known yet, the Parc du Petit Prince (www.parcdupetitprince.com) is used to launching multicolored balloons:
