Michel Toutain driving his moped towards Blanville when it suddenly stops and does not advance, seemingly stuck in inertia, in spite of all the efforts by Michel the moped did not budge. He checks the engine and then notices about 500 meters to his right, a luminous object, resembling a red sphere, with a green upper section resembling the lid on a boiler. He sees a cockpit with four silhouettes standing inside. A light within the cockpit turns on at first becoming green, then pink and as the object disappears gaining altitude it becomes white and then blue. As the object disappears from a sight, a luminous ball seems to detach itself from it and travels in a different direction. A second witness, Mr. Josse saw the object depart.

Time: 0620A

Yvonne S, on her way to work on foot, saw a luminous white sphere descend from the sky and hover over her pathway on a hillside, about 70 meters ahead and 50 meters above the ground. She could see inside, as though the walls were transparent, two human forms like men dressed in one piece suits, one larger than the other. The object shot off at great speed, then returned to the same spot; it did this once more, at which time Yvonne was only 50 meters distant, then sped away for good. When she passed by the spot over which the object had hovered, she was greatly frightened. She arrived at work in a highly agitated state. 48 hours later she was required to see a physician, who prescribed a sedative for her. A few days later, the woman's toenails had begun to dry and harden, and subsequently fell off. Those on her left foot were particularly affected. The malady, which remained a mystery to doctors, persisted for the next 20 years.

Date: October 13 1954

Time: afternoon

A group of young boys, including one name Bastian, had been playing in a field and were now returning home. Bastian had briefly stopped to tie his shoelaces when he heard the others yelling in apparent fright. Looking up he saw a few hundred meters in the sky, above the fir trees, a very large round object, hovering motionless, or oscillating slightly over their heads. Initially immobilized by fear the boys now run and hide behind a coppice of young oaks, in which they hide lying on the ground. There was a strange quiet in the area, even the birds were silent. Slowly the object began to descend until it remained about 1 meter above the ground. The object was silvery in color, smooth, with several small windows around its circumference. On top it had what appeared to be a glass-like cupola. Suddenly three small humanoids appeared outside the object, no one sees them coming out of it. They resembled dwarfs and are about 1.20 m in height, wearing gray-green combination diver suits, topped with a huge round helmet with an opaque glass visor, which obscured their faces. As night fell one of the boys attempted to get up and flee but was suddenly struck down by an unseen force, making his legs tremble. Surprised, the humanoids look in their direction and boarded the object, which then began to oscillate. The object turns red in color and disappears in plain sight.

Ms S, her husband, and another man, M Lourdel, were driving a truck on Route 216, just outside Vauchelles-les-Domart, when a bright light that passed over the road and landed beyond a small thicket on the other side of a freshly ploughed field dazzled them. Ms S, who was driving, stopped the truck and she and M Lourdel ran into the field to see what it was. Suddenly they saw four or five small figures, no more than a meter high, walking "Indian file" from right to left directly in front of the bushes, not more than 25 meters away. Frightened, the two turned on their heels, and ran back to the truck, driving quickly off.
