About 11 kilometers before Laval, a businessman coming from Paris suddenly saw a motionless object, ten meters above ground, to the left of the road, 150 meters away. It was shaped like two cones with a common base and showed two rows of about ten openings in the middle section. It seemed about 20 meters wide, metallic, with a light similar to that of a red traffic light shining through the windows. The witness had time to stop and maneuvered to get the object in his headlight beams. Throughout the observation a whistling sound such as that of a jet aircraft was heard. The object rose very slowly, flew off faster climbing out of sight.
