From Mars to Issenheim and back

A young man who works in Guebwiller, mister Lucien Flesch, claims to have seen Monday morning around 4 a.m. by going to his workplace in Rouffach, a flying saucer posed on a field at 100 m from the national road, at the North entry of Issenheim. The object would have seemed to him 5 to 6 m long, one meter high and it shone in the moonlight as if it were made of aluminum. An hour and a half later the same object was reportedly seen by residents of Bergholtz going to work. The same witnessed the taking off of the saucer at breakneck speed.
