Case description

On 29 May 1995 at about 01:00, a couple in a car at Villeneuve-sur-Lot saw an egg-shaped luminous form in the sky with beams emerging from underneath. They felt they were being followed. Although the witnesses rejected this explanation, GEIPAN considers the description strongly suggestive of a nightclub searchlight. The local gendarmerie unit was receiving many reports of this kind. The effects of such equipment vary with weather conditions and the observer's distance.
