Case description

The French narrative dates this observation to August 9, 1996, while the case title gives August 8. Between 2:30 and 3:30 a.m., four witnesses saw lights moving rapidly in circles. The investigation and witness accounts indicated probable effects from a laser projector used at a celebration in a neighbouring village. The date discrepancy remains unresolved.
