Case description

On 27 July 1977 at 03:55, members of one family in L'Arbresle saw 3 stationary craft below the cloud ceiling for 1–2 minutes. They described flared pyramidal shapes with rounded tops, emitting white and colored light of varying intensity. Around 04:00, the objects disappeared silently within seconds, then reappeared around 04:20 before finally disappearing into cloud. The gendarmerie could make no direct findings, and no other account was obtained.
