A local lawyer, who was riding in his carriage, was surprised to see a brightly lit object in the sky. His horse was scared and nearly toppled the carriage. On the underside of the dark object was seen several smaller lights, which supported an elongated canopy. He went down the hill to the South, 5 km from l'aquila. When the witness was on the way back after an hour, he saw that the object rises. He reached the height of cloud ceiling and flew to the North-East with fantastic speed with periodic flashes of light.
