PONTIVY (56) 06.12.2024

On the evening of 6 December 2024, a witness at home in Pontivy (56) noticed a stationary point of light, followed shortly by 4 similar sources. They suddenly moved rapidly with luminous trails described as little tongues of flame, then disappeared. In a second sequence, he saw 3 points moving fast with marked acceleration, followed by several white objects grouping together and spreading apart. He suggested a flock of gulls. GEIPAN judges the unusualness moderate and evidential strength low. There was only 1 witness and no additional information despite reminders, particularly requests concerning usable smartphone photographs or videos he might have captured. The case could not be analyzed. Under GEIPAN's criteria, evidential strength is the amount of information collected for an account that is considered reliable and objectively substantiated. GEIPAN classifies the case as C: unidentified for lack of data.
