Case description

On 10 December 2011 at 16:10, a driver on the A16 from Paris near Froissy saw ‘many very powerful lights above the horizon’ in a stormy sky. They seemed to belong to a triangular shape that rose quickly into dark clouds, reappeared and rapidly vanished due north. He said several other vehicles slowed during the sighting, but GEIPAN received no other account. GEIPAN rates strangeness as moderate and available evidential support as weak, with a single witness and uncertain location and viewing directions. Space-debris re-entry and sky lanterns fit the account too poorly to retain. Pending possible further accounts, the case is classified C for lack of information.
