“We’ve been living there for three years and have never seen anything like it,” writes a news scout from Rafz in the canton of Zurich. The reader photographed and filmed mysterious lights in the night sky around 9:50 p.m. Several glowing points lit up and then disappeared once more in a moment.
Another news scout from Heerbrugg in the Rhine Valley – regarding an hour’s drive from Rafz – sent a similar video. The reader says he was just on the balcony. “We wonder what it might be,” he adds. In his opinion, it was “clear to see that the lights do not come from the ground.”
But that was not the end of the nightmare: Shortly before 11 p.m., a news scout from Münchenbuchsee in the canton of Bern – 175 kilometers southwest of Rafz – reported having observed the same lights in the sky.
The origin of the light phenomena has not yet been clarified. Another news scout from Schaffhausen is puzzled: “It is very likely that it is the Stars in Town Festival in Schaffhausen. But whether that is visible as far as Bern? A light show at an event at this distance is actually out of the question.
