Please cite this reference in any correspondence with me regarding this case.
In the section devoted to the town of Etang-sur-Arroux, the newspaper Le Courrier de Saône-et-Loire for November 18, 1954, reported that on November 13, 1954, around 9 p.m., Mr. E. Lamalle, on Cemetery Road, was returning home when he suddenly saw a flying saucer in the sky.
He immediately called his wife, who was able to see "the brilliant light emanating from a crescent-shaped craft that, silently and at dizzying speed, was heading in the direction of Toulon."
Mr. and Mrs. Lamalle did not have time to call other witnesses before "the mysterious craft disappeared from their view."
