Острикур
France

Two young men, both 17 years old, watched the illuminated circle of objects and fell into fields a quarter of a mile away. 

Together with the third Junior witness, they went to a place located among old mines and slag dumps, and saw an object hovering motionless in front of trees about 300 meters to their left. 

It looked like an upturned plate with red and orange lights flashing around its perimeter. The top was red and the bottom was yellow. Not a sound. 

Suddenly, about 30 meters directly in front of them, two humanoid figures about 1.50 meters tall appeared, slowly and clumsily moving towards the young people. Brightly illuminated by white light, they kept their hands "glued to their bodies" and their feet motionless as they glided directly above the ground smoothly over rough terrain. No special features were found. 

About a minute later, the young people, petrified with fear, "found their feet" and hurriedly retired to their home, telling their parents what they had seen. No one believed them. 

The next day, the young people returned to their place. Although they couldn't find any traces in the area, they found blackened earth and charred grass at the spot where the object was hovering. Two months later, when investigators examined the site, the blackened area was still visible.

Original news

Date: August 8 1975
Time: 2200
Two young people, both 17, watched an illuminated object circle and come down in some fields a quarter mile away. Together with a third younger witness, they went off to the site, located among old mineshafts and slag piles, and saw the object hovering motionless in front of a stand of trees some 300 meters to their left. It appeared as a plate upside down, with alternating red and orange lights blinking around the perimeter. The top was red and it was yellow underneath. There was no sound. Suddenly, at about 30 meters directly in front of them, two humanoid figures about 1.50 metes in height appeared, moving slowly and stiffly toward the young people. Brightly illuminated all over by a white light, they held their arms “glued to their bodies,” and their legs were motionless as they glided along just above the ground, smoothly over somewhat rough terrain. No features were discerned. After about one minute, the young people, petrified with fear, “found their legs” and beat a hasty retreat to their home, telling their parents what they had seen. No one believed them. Next day the young people went back to the site. While they could find no traces in the area covered by the figures, they did find the ground blackened and grass charred at the site over which the object had hovered. Two months later, when the investigators examined the site, the blackened area was still visible.
