The saucer did not
fall in Pontailler...

It's just a
radio probe ballon

Pontailler (from our P.C.). -- Monday afternoon, one discovered, 2 kilometers from Pontailler, a parachute at the end of which was a radio-sounding balloon, which was recovered, with its instruments, by the gendarmerie brigade.

Some have speculated that this was the object that stirred the region on Saturday morning.
