Dominique Favreau, 35, claims to have seen unidentified flying objects (UFOs) on Friday, 21 August, at 3? p.m. from his home at 13 rue des Orioles in Niort. "We first saw a glider in the sky and an all-white spot on its right. And then another bright spot came next. The first stopped short and made a reverse turn. I initially thought it was a satellite, but then I told to myself that this could not be the case." Dominique then recounts a series of strange phenomena including very bright spots around the sun. His father Jacques-Marie claims to have been the witness of same observations between 1993 and 2000 from the Clou Bouchet-in Niort. "When we talk about these things you take us for fools," says the now retired locksmith. "But we are afraid. We wonder what they want with us and what they do. What is certain is that one is hiding things from us."
