My dossier about this case is here.
Mysterious crafts have allegedly been seen by several people in the sky of Vernon (Eure) during the night of Sunday to Monday. The son of a tradesman of the city says that he has distinctly seen, at about 01:00 hour of the morning, above the Seine, an elongated object of red color, resembling a large cigar. According to his statements, this object hovered at a rather low altitude. A flying saucer detached from this curious craft. These observations were confirmed by several people and particularly by a chemical engineer of the ballistic research laboratory of the army, which was driving on national road 182 [181?] at the same hour.
